Threaded wire rope terminal Ø 3mm, M6, 100mm, Right, Satin

The Strofix threaded wire rope terminal Ø 3mm, M6, 100mm, Right, Satin is an AISI 316 terminal for Ø3 mm stainless-steel wire rope. It combines a sleeve for the rope with an M6 right-hand threaded stud and a nut. Overall length is 100 mm; the thread is 48 mm long and the sleeve 38 mm.

The sleeve is crimped onto the rope end with the Strofix crimping pliers. The threaded stud passes through a hole in the post or end plate, and tightening the nut tensions the cable. A matching left-hand version is also available. AISI 316 contains molybdenum, which gives it higher resistance to chlorides and salt air than AISI 304 and makes it suitable for exterior, coastal and high-humidity installations. It works with the Strofix Ø3 mm rope and the other wire rope system components.

Use cases:

• Terminating and tensioning a Ø3 mm wire rope through a post or end plate
• Cable runs fixed with a nut at the first or last post
• Exterior and coastal wire rope railings (AISI 316)

About Wire Rope Systems

A wire rope system is a stainless-steel cable infill for balustrades: horizontal ropes are tensioned between the railing posts to form a light, open infill that keeps the view and lets air through – for balconies, terraces and staircases.

Strofix supplies the components for a Ø3 mm rope system: AISI 316 rope sold by the metre, rope holders for intermediate posts, eye anchors, tensioners, threaded terminals, rope stoppers and crimping pliers.

The rope and tensioning parts are AISI 316 and the rope holders AISI 304, for 40 × 40 mm and Ø42.4 mm posts. The correct set depends on the post profile, the number of rope runs and the length of the run.
