I bought this item a couple of times because it doesn't tangle itself everywhere like Velcro cable ties do. They are easy to work with, they don't come out of the cable, and more importantly, they do not untie themselves if the cable is long enough.
To state it more clearly, if your cables are on the short side, this product is not ideal for you.
Overall:
This is my favorite product for the job, but it is not my only option.
I use it on many types of cables with the correct length - diameter.
(HDMI. UTP, thin powerbrick cables, mic - instrument cables and more)
I highly recommend you to try and use this product.
