| HARNESSING:
RALLY RAP applies a strong grip developed both from its torsional cut and the memory of plastic materials used. It retains its strength under repeated flexing and bending, follows wire paths easily, and makes neat, free-running cables. It is extremely useful on long continuous runs where many leads are required; wires can enter or break out at any point. Rally Rap can be removed easily for troubleshooting and then re-applied. |
