| État du projet | Orientations recommandées | Pourquoi c'est important |
|---|---|---|
| The cable needs a simple retaining end | Use cable end stops | End stops help retain the cable at a designated terminal point. |
| The cable will be factory-prepared or tool-compressed | Use swaged cable terminals | Swaged terminals require correct cable diameter, compression method, and finished length. |
| The end connection needs threaded adjustment or assembly | Use threaded cable end fittings | Threaded fittings can connect to nuts, tensioners, posts, or other threaded hardware. |
| The connection uses a tab or clevis-style detail | Use fork end cable terminals | Fork ends should match the plate thickness, pin size, and cable angle. |
| The connection uses a pin, bolt, or loop point | Use eye end cable fittings | Eye ends should match the connection hardware and alignment. |
| The terminal detail is project-specific | Use ball end terminals or custom end fittings as required by the design | Special terminal designs should be confirmed with drawings or samples. |
End Fitting Types and Their Roles
Cable end fittings complete the cable run. They are not the same as pass-through fittings or spacer bars, and they should not be selected without reviewing the terminal post or connection point.
| End fitting type | Fonction principale | Common considerations |
|---|---|---|
| Butées d'extrémité de câble | Retain or stop the cable end at a defined point | Cable diameter, stop shape, receiving detail, and installation method |
| Swaged terminals | Create a fixed cable end using compression or factory preparation | Cable size, swaging process, terminal shape, and finished cable length |
| Threaded end fittings | Connect cable ends to threaded hardware or allow adjustment | Thread size, nut or tensioner compatibility, adjustment range, and post detail |

| Eye end fittings | Connect cable to a bolt, pin, hook, or closed-loop point | Eye size, fixing hardware, cable direction, and alignment |
Terminal Posts and End Connection Planning
Cable end fittings should be planned together with terminal posts and end connection details. A fitting that works on one post layout may not work on another if the hole, plate, thread, or cable direction is different.
| Planning item | Ce qu'il faut vérifier | Related hardware |
|---|---|---|
| Terminal post type | Round, square, rectangular, side-mounted, or custom terminal post | End fittings, tensioners, through-post hardware, post holes |
| Cable diameter | Cable size and construction used in the railing system | Swaged terminals, threaded fittings, end stops, fork ends, eye ends |
| Finished cable length | Distance between terminal points and adjustment allowance | Swaged terminals, threaded fittings, tensioners |
| Cable angle | Straight, stair, angled, or corner condition | Fork ends, eye ends, multi-angle fittings, terminal hardware |
| Tensioning location | Whether tensioning occurs at the same end or another point | Cable tensioners, threaded fittings, turnbuckles, terminal posts |

Compatibility with Cable Railing Components
Cable end fittings should be selected together with tensioners, cable fittings, posts, and pass-through hardware. The end fitting is only one part of the complete cable railing assembly.
- For tension adjustment, coordinate cable end fittings with Tensioners and Turnbuckles.
- For general assembly and routing, review Cable Hardware Fittings.
- For cable passing through intermediate posts, coordinate with Quincaillerie pour poteaux traversants.
- For end post conditions, coordinate with Poteaux en acier inoxydable and terminal post components.
- For longer runs or spacing control, review Barres d'écartement des câbles where needed.
Personnalisation en fonction des exigences du projet
Many cable end fitting projects are customized according to cable diameter, end post design, thread detail, terminal shape, cable angle, material grade, and installation environment.
