Cable Connection, The (Ultra-tec Cable Railing)
The Cable Connection was established in 1991. Its principals have been in the wire rope business for over thirty years and are specialists in manufacturing cable assemblies and fittings for up to 3/8 in. diameter cable. Since 1998, Ultra-tec® Cable Railing Infill has been a favorite of architects, specifiers, and builders. With its signature Invisiware® fittings that are concealed inside the end post and sleekly designed outside-the-post fittings, Ultra-tec® Cable Railing Infill provides an attractive alternative to conventional barrier rail systems and can be found in projects throughout North America.
Swaged Tensioning Fittings — Adjust-a-Body® with Threaded Eye
The Adjust-A-Body® with Threaded Eye can be used with any fitting on the opposite end of the run. This fitting attaches to the wood end post by installing a Lag Eye into a pre-drilled hole in the end post and attaching the threaded eye portion of the fitting to the lag eye with a button head screw. The cable is retained within the body portion of the fitting by a ferrule swaged onto the end of the cable. The lock nut is installed all the way onto the threaded eye first, followed by the body, which is secured onto the eye, creating tension on the cable. Once sufficient tension is achieved, the lock nut is secured against the end of the body to prevent the fitting from loosening.
While this fitting can be used on pitched or level runs, it is most appropriate for pitched runs because the threaded eye portion of the fitting pivots at the lag eye. The pre-drilled hole for the lag eye is drilled level, making installation easy.
