Today, those wire runs would be bundled with Zip Ties.  In the Sixties, they were bundled with what looked like cloth ties.  Saw them back when you could get up close and personal with the Saturn V at JSC.

Spot ties were a nylon fiber. We used it up til the retirement of our P3 Orions
Cable ties have to be cut using calibrated cutters which were not considered very reliable and would over tighten the looms. So hand tied spot tie was the go.
