Default Cable Ties

Where's the best place to pick these up.. in a hurry. I need one 5mm wide and over 30cm long, nothing special, but the usual B&Q type places don't have them. Halfrauds? Motor factors?? Electrical wholesalers??

TIA

You might struggle due to the width? as a long narrow cable tie wont be very strong

Jewsons came up with the goods. 360mm x 4.8mm Halfrauds didn't have anything over 300mm, useless for tying people up.
