Abstract: Embodiments of the present technology relate to tie apparatus, such as those commonly referred to as “zip ties” or “cable ties.” Advantageously, the disclosed technology increases the friction between a tie and the cables or other objects clinched by the tie. This is done by, for example, providing a gripping material on the inside of the strap. The disclosed technology also includes a head for a tie apparatus that can receive and engage a strap with a grip. Embodiments of the present technology also provide configurations for the grip on the strap.
