Sailing cable railing system – Timber post

The sailing cable railing assembly kit combines elegance and robustness. It is similar to the marine hardware that can be found on several sailboats all over the world. Easy to install, this kit can tension cable over 60 feet.

Specifications

This kit includes a swageless jaw turnbuckle and a swageless jaw terminal (with clevis pin) with a stainless steel screw eye.

The hardware features a mechanical swage fitting which allows for fast attachment using simple hand tools.
