Reusable Cable Tie - Wiederverwendbarer Kabelbinder
After getting TPE from orbi tech, I struggled a bit getting this to print, because the filament just wouldn't stick. Managed to print it on upside-down tape. The cable tie itself works quite well. You can get the "light" version through the hole quite easily, with good enough stability. The "tight" version has a stronger fit, but requires some force to get through the hole. But so far, the TPE didn't rip, you can really stress it. Also there is a small and a big one. Probably this will work with soft PLA or other very flexible materials as well.

Update:
Today I got white NinjFlex, so i tried to print with this. The stickiness is really great, so great even, that it ripped my Kapton tape. So I'm printing just on glass now (but here at 40°C).
The light versions are not really suitable for this material, as it is more flexible and doesn't hold that well. The tight versions are quite good (see photo with white cable tie). Maybe I will even make a tighter version specifically for NinjaFlex. Also it seems like a bit of retraction (1mm) is working for this material, didn't have any problems with the filament getting bent in the extruder yet.
