National Mfg N283-895 Aluminum Ferrules Stops 5/32 in 2pk

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N283-895 is a two-pack of aluminum ferrules and stops designed for use with 5/32-inch non-coated steel cable. Each pack contains two ferrules and two stops, providing everything needed to create secure cable terminations and loop connections in a single purchase. These components are rated for a safe working load of 520 pounds per loop when two ferrules are used together. Licensed trades and experienced installers use these fittings in rigging, safety cable, and mechanical cable assembly applications where a reliable, compact termination is required.

These ferrules and stops are intended strictly for use with 5/32-inch non-coated steel cable. They are not rated for coated cable or cable of a different diameter. Typical applications include cable railing, gate hardware, safety tethering, and similar mechanical fastening scenarios found in both residential and light commercial construction and maintenance settings. The aluminum construction keeps weight low while maintaining the rated working load for properly installed, two-ferrule loop configurations.

Key Features

• Fits 5/32-inch non-coated steel cable only — do not use on coated or undersized cable
• Safe working load of 520 pounds per loop using two ferrules
• Aluminum construction for corrosion resistance and lightweight handling
• Pack includes two ferrules and two stops — complete termination set
• Carded packaging for easy point-of-use storage and identification

Compatibility

Designed for use exclusively with 5/32-inch non-coated steel cable. Do not use with coated cable or cable of any other diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation typically requires a ferrule swaging or crimping tool sized for 5/32-inch ferrules to achieve a proper, load-rated termination. Always inspect cable ends for fraying before inserting into the ferrule. Never exceed the stated safe working load of 520 pounds per loop when using two ferrules in a standard loop configuration. Verify that the cable and termination meet applicable local building or mechanical codes before placing the assembly into service.
