CBL-OC-8 Cable End Fitting for 8 mm Cable, Open & Closed Type
The CBL-OC-8 is a stainless steel cable end fitting engineered to terminate and tension 8 mm diameter cables. Sitting in the middle of the open-and-closed range, it is the most commonly specified size for commercial cable railings and medium-span curtain wall bracing.
It balances a slim appearance with the tension capacity needed for typical balcony and deck layouts. Precision machined bodies with swaged or threaded ends provide a secure, durable termination and allow fine on-site tension adjustment, with SS304 or SS316 construction suited to outdoor and coastal service.

Installation & Usage
The fitting is terminated onto the cut cable end and anchored to the post, wall plate or frame connection, then adjusted through the thread until the run reaches design tension. Open or closed end types are chosen to suit the anchorage geometry, and lock nuts should be checked after final adjustment. Matching turnbuckles and studs can be supplied so the whole tension package comes from one source.

Every end fitting is 100% inspected before shipment for thread condition, body finish and dimensional accuracy. Material test certificates are available on request to support project specifications.
