A Wire Tie is a single-use fastener: to open a harness for service it is cut, and it then needs a fresh tie to re-secure the loom. A missing or broken Wire Tie lets wires sag into the path of the brush, belt, or wheels, where they can chafe and short. Signs you need this tie are a harness that has come loose or is drooping, a tie that was cut during service, or a brittle, cracked tie that has let go. Replacing it re-dresses the harness safely. It loops around the bundle and pulls tight during assembly.
