Hello all, I am replacing all the vent tubing and oil breather tubes etc., and in order to get the aluminum pipe connecting the two gas tanks out, i had to cut the tie wraps that hold the tubes together. The good part is that I was able to source the same tie wraps, but unfortunately I only found a pack of 100 for 100 pounds sterling.... I only need 3. I think they are made in England, Legrand is the brand. Has anyone found a source that sells them individually? Or has anyone already purchased the pack of 100, and would be willing to sell me a few? Could also split the pack of 100 if anyone else is looking for them as well. Thanks! -Jeff
They've been acquired and now go under the name Colson. No US distribution, but you can find eBay sellers on any of the overseas eBay sites who will ship internationally. You want the 262mm size. That said, just finished my restoration and probably have 80 fresh ones left, which I'm happy to share with the forum family here. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Jeff - Thinking I may post bundles of 10 for a few bucks in the for sale forum just to recoup my costs, but PM me and I'll drop 3 in the mail to you.
So I counted and have 87, minus a few for "family and personal spares." I thus used 13 to secure the fuel vapor cross pipe and bundle the long lines through the door sills. Thinking of putting 5 bundles of 15 in the sale forum later this evening, which would give anyone a full resto set. Good way to clear the garage, and will give dibs to the folks here who needed some.
Listed em for $1ea shipped, including protective mailer. http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/ferrari-parts-collectibles/544434-oem-spec-engine-bay-zip-ties-3x8-etc.html#post145197670
For those in the UK 0 319 16 | Legrand Black PA 12 Non-Releasable Cable Tie, 265mm x 9 mm, Colson | Legrand
Four sets spoken for. Five requests, but holding out last set for a bit in case waymar chimes in and still wants one.
Wanted to let everyone know I got more of these. Had to order a small batch to compensate a buyer whose package was damaged, and was accidentally sent a large bulk pack from Europe instead. I'm flush again, for anyone doing projects this spring... http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/ferrari-parts-collectibles/544434-oem-spec-engine-bay-zip-ties-3x8-etc.html
you can get them in the US at Allied Electronics Pass & Seymour - 0 319 16 - Colson 265mm x 9 mm Black PA 12 Non-Releasable Cable Tie - Allied Electronics
Could someone post pictures of where these ties go? I bought a set, but I am having trouble finding a location for their installation. Thanks.
Goto one of the online parts books: Ferrari 308 GTSi (1981) - Fuel Pump and Pipes: Page 009 Look at the top cross-over pipe and you'll see it UN-NUMBERED. SORRY, as I'm having issues posting links.
Just noticed that superformance actually stocks these tie wraps, 2 British pounds a pop, not terrible if you just need a few.
I originally sourced them from UK for about $1 each; when everyone on fchat started wanting to buy them, found some on eBay's French site, delivered in bulk to US for about 50 cents each. Scroll up a few posts, and apparently someone has found an industrial supply outfit stateside that stocks them. Otherwise: Lot de 100 colliers Colson 9X262mm Legrand 31916 | eBay They're the Colson Legrand 31916 ties, size 9x262mm.
I just ordered a box of 100, i only need 3, so ill offer up packs of 5 shipped to anyone in the US for $15. PM me if you are interested. I believe the 308s use 3 (correct me if im wrong) so you will have a few spares.
