A super neat and versatile stainless wire balustrade kit for areas supported with timber or metal posts. Comprises swage stud terminals and hex socket tensioners. Bevelled washers available to suit stair sections. Hydraulic swaging required.
Pre-drill your post holes. We recommend an 8.5mm hole diameter (the hex socket tensioner is 8mm in diameter).
Cut your wire lengths.
Insert the wire rope into the swage fittings at each end of your run.
These fittings require a hydraulic swaging tool. Swage the swage stud terminals onto the wire ends.
Take the hex nuts off the swage stud terminals.
Thread the swage stud terminals into the hex socket tensioners at each end wire runs. Grab a small spanner or a shifter and grip the end of the swage stud terminal near the wire end, and tighten the hex tensioner with an allen key. Holding the swage stud terminal with a small spanner or shifters will stop the wire from twisting.
For angled sections such as stairs, 8mm x 37 degree bevelled washers support the Hex Socket Tensioners. This results in a smooth, seamless wire balustrade run.
For stair sections with thicker posts such as 90 x 90mm or more, choose the 75mm swage stud terminal.
