Query .. why is warranty meaningless?  Just asking .. I have NEVER had a 
problem with a return at Harbor..... nor has anyone I know of .. our store 
here is pretty recent, but have bought on line and from the Redding, CA 
store for years....

I am wondering if anyone has experience with stainless steel tie wraps? I
don't see them mentioned in the "coax up the tower" TowerTalk discussions.
They may have merit in tower/coax situations with their freedom from UV
damage and metal-to-metal connection. More so with heavy and/or long coax
runs, whether they be hardline coax or conventional coax.
I purchased a container of 25 pieces 5/16"x 16" for $6.99 to experiment
with.

Relevant specifications:
1. 304 grade S/S      2. Rounded edges  3. 75 Lbs. maximum capacity
Et al: Made by "Storehouse"  in China. Storehouse appears to be part of
Harbor Freight. Warranty via Harbor Freight for 90 days; which is
meaningless.
