Cable Tension System, 6 mm Cable, for Point-Supported Glass Curtain Wall & Balustrade
This 6 mm diameter stainless steel cable tension system is engineered for point-supported glass curtain walls and glass balustrades that demand greater tensile capacity than lighter wire can provide. The heavier 6 mm cable suits exterior facades, longer spans and higher design loads, while the matched precision end fittings deliver reliable, adjustable tensioning and durable anchorage.
It is commonly specified for commercial curtain wall bracing and exterior glass railing infill where a slim but robust tension line is required. SS304 or SS316 construction gives good corrosion resistance in exterior and coastal exposure, and the standard thread fittings allow final tension tuning on site once all adjacent runs are fitted.
Key Features
- Cable size: 6 mm diameter stainless steel cable for the intended duty
- Material: SS304 / SS316 stainless steel for exterior service
- Thread: Standard thread fittings for on-site tension adjustment
- Design: Complete cable system with matched precision end fittings
- Finish: Mirror polished or satin brushed
- Quality: 100% inspected before shipment; material test certificates available on request
Specifications
- Cable: 6 mm diameter stainless steel cable
- Material options: SS304 or SS316 stainless steel
- End fittings: Matched fittings with standard thread for adjustable tensioning
- Finish options: Mirror polished or satin brushed
Installation & Usage
Each cable run is cut to length on site, terminated at one end fitting, anchored to the structure at the other, and then brought to tension with the threaded adjustment until the run sits straight and consistent with adjacent lines. Matching tensioners and anchors should be fitted to the design layout, and the tension of every run rechecked after the first weather cycle and again at handover.
Quality Assurance
Every cable system is 100% inspected before shipment for cable condition, thread integrity and fitting finish. Material test certificates are available on request to support project documentation.
Applications
- Exterior point-supported glass curtain wall bracing
- Commercial glass railing cable infill
- Canopy and structural glazing stabilization
- Balcony and deck wire tension systems
Customization & OEM
Custom thread sizes, end types and cable lengths are available. Wholesale and OEM orders are welcome. Send us your project drawings or tension schedule to request a quote. Matching tensioners and anchor fittings are available to keep every run aligned and easy to tension after installation.
