X-ray detection — detectable cable ties display a differential of between 200 and  2000 on the x-ray gray scale.

Visual detection — visual detection systems detect surface irregularities and volume changes.

Metal detection — detectable by nearly every metal detector in service today.

Deep blue color for easy visual detection
