How to Replace Zip Ties with Reusable Rubber Twist Ties – A Step-by-Step Guide

Zip ties are handy, but let’s face it—they’re single-use, hard to remove without cutting, and not always eco-friendly.

That’s where Handy Gourmet Twist Rubber Ties come in. These reusable, flexible, and ultra-strong alternatives offer the same (or better!) level of hold—without the waste.

If you're ready to ditch disposable zip ties, here’s a simple step-by-step guide to help you make the switch.

 

Step 1: Identify Current Zip Tie Uses

Take a quick tour of your home or workspace. Look for areas where zip ties are in use—cords bundled behind your desk, tools hanging in the garage, or gardening stakes holding up plants. Make a list of what you want to replace.

 

Step 2: Gather Your Handy Gourmet Twist Rubber Ties

Each tie is 8 inches long, flexible, waterproof, and capable of holding up to 110 pounds. With a multicolor 12-pack, you’ll have plenty of options to organize by color or category.

 

Step 3: Cut Off the Old Zip Ties

Using scissors or a utility knife, carefully snip away the old zip ties. Be cautious not to damage cords, plants, or whatever they're holding in place.

 

 

 

Step 4: Replace with Rubber Twist Ties

Take your rubber tie and wrap it around the items just like you would a twist tie. Twist both ends tightly to secure. Thanks to the internal metal wire and soft foam exterior, these ties stay in place while also being gentle on surfaces.

 

Step 5: Adjust and Reuse as Needed

The beauty of reusable twist ties is adjustability. Need to move cords or add another item to a bundle? Just untwist and retie—no tools, no mess, no waste.
