Abstract
A cable tie includes a body of a first material molded over at least one barb of a second material. The body includes a head section configured to secure the barb in a configuration that permits rotational movement of the barb, permit insertion of a tail section into the head section, and prevent extraction of the tail section from the head section by engagement of the barb. In one implementation, the cable tie is manufactured using a multi-shot molding process.
