				What about these?

 Ty-rap (tm) says they were invented to be used in airliners. And at a nickel each, they’re pretty reasonable.
 Their literature cites applications on Mars rovers & Space Shuttle.
 Is there something inherently better about lacing than Ty-raps?

    Sincerely doubt that! Tye-wraps on the 
    rovers would be at least tefzel if not
    nomex. Used work with a guy who was a
    big-time tech with an air transport
    maintenance firm. I'll see if I can track
    him down and ask about tye-wraps.
 
    According to the data sheet:
 
   http://www.aeroelectric.com/Mfgr_Data/Misc/Thomas&Betts/TY24MX_M3367.pdf 
 
    intended for indoor applications. Rated to only
    165F.   These are made from 6.6 Nylon . . . not
    nearly the capability of Dacron. Virtually
    everything you can buy from the catalogs in tye-wraps
    will be nylon. Problematic under the cowl but
    okay every place else.

    Tye-wraps ARE more convenient . . . but
    largely a personal preference.

				The TYZ525M is the 330degF, flame resistant, low smoke Ty-rap that is Flouropolymer from ABB/Thomas&Betts but very pricey at $250 for a pack of 100.

    Yup. That would be Tefzel ties.

				The thread started with Bob N. identifying the lacing we should be using.  Coincidentally I had already purchased that EBay offering.  This morning the seller wrote
 
 "Hi Preston, Thank you for contacting us.  Yes we have about 65 spools more, how many do you want to purchase? please let us know"
 
 I don't want to be the go-between but if someone volunteers I'm guessing you can save a few dollars per spool.  You can see the item in his EBay store by clicking through on https://www.ebay.com/str/mycyberoffice?_bkw=MilSpec+AA52081
