316 Stainless Allen-Key Tensioner - M6 - 35mm
Create a neat adjustable balustrading end with this 316 stainless steel female-end tensioner. It fits through a metal post, allowing a threaded swage stud to screw into the female end.
The 35mm-long adjuster has an M6 female thread and an Allen-key head for tensioning. It suits M6 threaded swage studs. Check the post arrangement and the selected stud together when planning the connection, allowing access to the Allen-key head for adjustment.
A tidy adjustable end at the metal post
The female-thread arrangement places adjustment at the end of a compatible threaded swage stud. This can keep the connection compact around the post while leaving a defined point for tensioning with an Allen key. Plan the tensioner and stud together, as the thread match is only one part of the complete wire-end arrangement.
Check the post opening, post thickness and room available for the threaded component before assembly. Leave practical access to the Allen-key head after surrounding work is complete. Include the terminal and adjustment allowance when measuring the wire run. Once fitted, inspect the complete end connection rather than concentrating only on the visible head of the tensioner.
For a replacement installation, measure the existing mounting position before removing the old fitting. Record the hole pattern or thread, the available depth and the space around the attachment point. This helps distinguish a like-for-like replacement from a fitting that would require changes to the surrounding structure or connecting hardware.
