[TowerTalk] Securing the cables to the tower?

What are people using to secure their feeders and other cables to the 
tower and at what interval(s)? I'm expecting to have two (maybe three, 
if I put a VHF/UHF beam up as well) runs of coax, plus 4-conductor 
rotator cable, plus the control cables for the SteppIR and the Icom AH-4 
tuner. The tower will be an AN Wireless -- with 60-degree angle legs, so 
I'm thinking of tucking the cables into that angle as far as possible. 
Would the black (UV-resistant) cable ties work, if I can get long enough 
ones?
