A tracheal tube, having a machine end and a patient end, includes a tracheal tube tie located between the machine and patient ends of the tube. The tracheal tube tie is elastic, is made from twisted plastic tape that has been heated to make a rounded cord, and has loose ends for securing the tube in a trachea of a patient by tying the ends to the nose or jaw of a veterinary patient. The plastic tape may be made of polyvinyl chloride. The tape is twisted along its length to form a rounded cord. The cord is heat treated so that it keeps the rounded form.
