Default Small wire ties

How can I aquire a quantity (100) of the tiny wire ties that came packaged withmy EXI 450 Pro?

Icould find many uses for them and after a extensive google search I can't find any smaller than L-4 and the L-4 is twice the size as the ones in the kit.

Andy,

Are you sure? Take a look at your package. I have looked everywhere and the smallest I have found are L-4. I have Googled and found nothing smaller than L-4. The ones in the EXI 450 Pro kit are half the size of the L-4. We have a big regional electronics warehouse here and they know of nothing smaller than L-4.

Edit - I may have just found them in the Granger catalog.

humm.... I think the ones from china are smaller I guess but honestly, do you really need to use those?

Those look similar to the ones I just found in the Granger catalog. I will go to the local Granger store tomorrow. Thanks for the help.

I am a little bit anal about using things bigger than needed for the job. Smaller is better (-:

I got the small ones at wal mart but while a tiny bit bigger than the original they are small enough for me - I can barely see them!

I would rather uses the ones from walmart because they are more tough and does the job better.

These little guys have the same strength rating as the L-4 and are smaller. For securing wires to the frame smaller is better for me. They came from Granger 3KG-94 is black and 93 is white. The black ones are more expensive than the white ones as they are UV resistant. $20.00 per 100. The black ones look a lot better on a CF frame.
