This cable strap is ideal for use with snakes/multicores and is very easy to use. It has a small buckle which you can use to permanently attach it to the cable and then the cam-lock style fastener is really easy to use once you have wrapped the webbing around the multicore. The strap is plenty long enough, infact I will probably trim mine a little to save having excess webbing flapping about, but that's a personal preference. These cable straps certainly make life a lot easier and tidier when storing large cables.
