Re: Al's Annual Inspection Thread
Siri,
You can secure the surgical tubing to itself (after you have wrapped the tubing around a structural part of your robot) using ty-wraps as there is very little load on the ty-wrap when the tubing is in motion. You don't want to use them in place of hardware (as a tie bar or link) to secure one end to a stationary part of your robot. The dynamic loads could cause them to fail.
