DataShark PA70076 Heavy Duty Cable Tie Gun - Professional Zip Tie Tool for 1/4" Wide Nylon Straps | Perfect for Electrical Wiring, HVAC, Automotive & Industrial Bundling

I've used several zip tie guns at work. I tried to save a few bucks and bought a Harbor Freight gun and took it back the next day... junk. I used some that other guys had at work that cost $50.00 and $120.00. They worked awesome. I saw this with the Greenlee logo in the information so I took a chance. The free shipping also was a plus.So here's my opinion... $18.00 is an excellent price. This tool is all metal and has a solid feel. How does it work? Very well. As a maintenance mechanic I often have to make a temporary repair using a zip tie or two... or three. This little gun cinches the zip tie tight (on the highest setting of 3) and snips of the end almost flush with the lock. I measured the cut end at .050 Inches with my micrometer. The minimal amount left is less than a 64th of an inch and it is smooth! No more tightening zip ties with pliers and cutting off with wire cutters that leave a sharp edge that can cut you wide open.This is day one and I've used it several times and the rest of the crew had to try it out too so it's done at least 20 zip ties before lunch.It does all sizes including the heavy duty 1/4 inch ties.Highly recommend this tool. If anything goes bad I will update this review. Just to be fair, i have not used it on the lower settings to wrap a bundle of cables or wires yet.I bought this from American Tools. I give them 5 stars too. Fast free 3 day shipping. It came in a padded envelope that fit in large slot in my locking mailbox. Happy with shipping, happy with the product.UPDATE 3/3/2018 I freaking LOVE this little tool. Iv'e used it hundreds of times and several coworkers have used on a lot of projects. The #3 (highest setting) tightens a 1/4" Zip tie really tight. I used it to hold a sensor on a pneumatic cylinder until a proper stainless steel strap could be delivered. Saved 2 hours of down time. The machine ran with no problems and the sensor didn't move out of place even after 2,500 cycles. On the lowest setting it works well for bundling delicate wires and hard plastic pneumatic tubing without damaging anything.
