316 Stainless Button Head Terminal - 1/8 Inch Wire - 45mm Shaft
Finish a wire balustrade through a metal post with a neat button-head terminal. The 316 stainless steel fitting combines the post-end head with a swage end for the wire.
This model suits 1/8 inch imperial wire rope and has a 45mm shaft. Check the post thickness, the required wire termination and the available space before ordering. Use a suitable swaging arrangement for the selected wire and terminal.
A defined end connection for the selected wire
A swage terminal provides the transition between the wire and its adjoining fitting. The wire interface and the finished connection serve different purposes, so both need to match the planned assembly. Check the wire size before comparing the eye, fork or threaded end and the space the terminal will occupy.
Plan the finished run with the terminals and any adjuster included in the layout. Use tooling appropriate to the specified terminal and wire combination, following the applicable swaging procedure. Where a die reference is supplied, retain it with the component details. Inspect the finished termination and keep its product reference on record so future replacements can be matched to the same wire and connection arrangement.
For replacement work, measure the complete connection before removing the old terminal and note its orientation. Compare all supplied length dimensions rather than only the visible end. Thread size, thread direction and wire size can refer to different interfaces on one component, so retain each relevant designation when planning the new assembly.
