For up to 3/16" BARED wire rope (that's the metal dia, not including any covering) I hammer in 3 dents. Using a nail about 3/16" dia. (for a 3/16" ID ferrule) laid across a DOUBLE ferrule, put 2 dents on one side, no closer than within 25% of the END of the ferrule flip it over and put the 3rd dent on the opposite side, spaced between the first 2.

The crimping sleeves that you linked to are made for 3/16" wire rope/cable. If you have solid wire then those sleeves are not the correct method to join or secure the solid wire. For solid wire you would need to use a bolt or screw clamp. For swaging the crimping sleeves with wire rope/cable you would want a tool like shown here.

you would have to use knots, crimped terminators, or mechanical fasteners to keep the wire from sliding, not sure how that would look. actually, you could do it inside the tube, depending on the flexibility of the cable: feed it though both holes, bend, fish out the end, crimp, remove slack. not sure if you have clearance, but that would work and look great.

Code allows the crimp sleeves for grounds. The proper procedure is to tie all grounds in the box together with a crimp sleeve or green wire nut, then from there run an individual 'pigtail' conductor to the switch or outlet, continuing the unbroken single …

2018年1月23日 · A quick Google search using various terms eventually resulted in using "hole protector sleeves for 3/16 wire rope" leading to many links, one of which is Amazon: VistaView Stainless Steel Protector Sleeves for 1/8", 5/32" or 3/16" Cable Railing. Being stainless steel, they are pricey and as Harper noted, unlikely to prevent water intrusion.

2018年10月5日 · Wire rope will have a minimum safe bending radius and there will be a matching thimble for each specific diameter wire rope. If a connection is made to a hole in a tang, the sharp (or not sharp) edge of the hole will cause the wire rope to kink or otherwise bend below the recommended minimum radius.

If you have access to a vehicle with a winch, you could use that to stretch the wire rope. You could use a fence stretcher. These are intended for pulling wire fence tight, but you could make a loop in the end of the wire rope and attach it to the stretcher. You could use a hand winch (a.k.a. come along, hand puller, cable puller, etc.)

2018年5月29日 · Each wire end will exert a transverse force F_tw = mg / (2 sin θ) where m is a single mass at the center of the wire, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s/s), and θ is the angle of deflection. If you are willing to accept a 12" deflection of the primary wire then F_tw ~ 50 N/kg * m = 16.7 ft * m.

2021年7月9日 · Strip 14 AWG (1.6 mm) wire. 2.0 - 12. Strip 12 AWG (2.0 mm) wire. 1.6 - 10. Strip 10 AWG (2.6 mm) wire. CUT. Used to cut wires and cables. LOOP. The loop hole is used to bend hooks in wires, so that the wire can be attached to screw terminals. Place the tip of a stripped wire into the hole, and bend the wire around the body of the tool. Screw ...

2021年4月9日 · Depending on the strength required, its possible to place a crimp with the wire's coating/sheath still on, and if a thinble was also used INSIDE the loop this would help extend the useful life of the looped section. Soaking the wire in heavy oil or a rust preventative wherever the coating is removed or damaged will slow rusting. PS.
