There is definitely different quality in cable ties.  I have had very good
luck with ones made by Panduit.  I also have never experienced any crushing
problems that other's have mentioned in this tread.

Don't take the UV resistance to the bank. I bought some blue tywraps that
were allegedly UV resistant at a hamfest last year. I left a few of them
sitting out in the sun for three months, they became brittle enough that
they broke when I tried to wrap them around a cable.
