How do I fasten the cable to it?
This fitting is perfect for DIY, as it is designed to be used in conjunction with a ferrule and thimble which uses the lower cost hand swager for securing the wire cable in place. All of these items are also available on our online shop. (see related product below)
Rotate the centre of the fixing to tension the cable (a special spanner can be purchased from our shop to aid the process, but is not 100% necessary).

Cleaning & Maintenance

Without regular cleaning and maintenance discolouration of the surface of the stainless steel by corrosion (tea staining) can occur.

How to reduce the risk of tea staining

  • Absence of corrosives – especially salt, chlorine, cleaning acids etc.
  • Atmospheric Conditions – lower temperatures and low humidity are better.
  • Surface orientation – Open exposure to rain washing is better
  • Surface Finish – In general a smoother finish is better. where practical mirror polish finish may perform better than a brushed finish.
  • Chemical cleanliness or passivation of the surface improves corrosion resistance
  • Appropriate grade selection for conditions
  • Regular Maintenance to limit the accumulation of corrosives
