Most electric cable clips include a pre-inserted nail that allows installers to quickly secure the clip into timber or masonry. This simple design makes them one of the most common fixing methods used during electrical installation work.
The Timco cable clips mixed tray available in this category provides a selection of commonly used clip sizes. As a result, electricians and installers can keep several types of wall cable clips ready for different cable types and installation situations.
