How do I use it to hold the cable?
This fitting is perfect for DIY, as it is designed to be used in conjunction with a ferrule and hand swager. Thread the cable through the ferrule, loop it around the thimble, then thread it back through the other hole in the ferrule. Use the hand swager to crush the ferrule so that it grips the wire cable. Cut off any extra wire cable for a neat finish. All of these items are also available on our online shop. (see related product below)

Can it be used for exterior applications?
As it is 316 grade Stainless Steel it is more than suitable to be used inside or outside.

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
