Weststone100pcs Plastic Black 7" Twist Ties - Double Wire Heavy Duty for Garden

I needed to cut each one in half, and while they are pliable enough for the mask, the wire is sturdier than in a simple twist tie. They arrived in the expected time frame and I am quite satisfied with the seller and the product.

We're using these to make nose bridges in facemasks for personal PPE. We folded the ends in about 1in to make them fit the mask pattern. Fit is good and they seem sturdy enough to handle multiple reforming as the masks are laundered without them in place.

I'm using them to close plastic bags that store things in my basement. So, they are not a 1-use thing-- I open and close the bags, etc. They're inexpensive, but sturdy enough to hold up to a lot of handling. Definitely recommend! They're like very heavy duty twist ties.

My first purchase of the black heavy duty double wires were great for nose wire used for my face mask. I have tried different brands and the black ones are the best for the job with heavy gauge #23. It's washable and can be reshaped. I reordered wires in clear plastic and overlooked at the gauge #. I was very disappointed when I received them. and noticed they were thinner and less sturdy. I looked back at my order and realized the detail description of the clear and white plastics are at gauge #24. Lesson for me to double check on detail description of all my purchase products. I used a plier to fold the edges in hope to prevent sharp wires to poke through mask fabric and cause injury.

I can confirm that this is a heavy-duty twist tie ... it is the same width as a "normal" twist tie (5/32 inch), but it has two wires in it, and each wire is heavier gauge (#23 AWG as measured with a micrometer) compared to a normal twist tie. Also the plastic around it is really tough and solidly bound to the wire, making it exceptionally strong and durable. Excellent product.

works great when you need a little extra strength and length on your 'tie'

These are seriously tough twist ties. The only reason I don't give them 5 stars is that I've started using the AusKit rubber gear ties (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01F76AVDM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), which I like better.

I purchased these to use in making masks. I cut them in half. They seem sturdy and I hope they will hold up better than regular twist n ties.
