CONCEALED TENSIONING FITTING
The Invisiware® Receiver with Invisiware® Stud combination is a concealed, swaged, tensioning, through-the-post-mounted fitting that is suitable for level runs. Receivers and studs are available for 1/8” and 3/16”, diameter 1×19 stainless steel cable; 1/8” and 3/16” sizes are also suitable for pitched applications.
The Invisiware® Receiver with Invisiware® Stud can be used with any other fitting on the opposite end of the run. This fitting is placed and concealed within a pre-drilled hole in the metal end post. The Receiver is furnished with a Delrin® washer that is installed between the shoulder of the fitting and the end post to protect the surface of the finish of the end post as tension is applied. The stud is swaged onto one end of the cable and is inserted and threaded into the Receiver installed in the end post. Tension is created by rotating the Receiver (with a hex wrench inserted into its broached end) and drawing the Stud into the Receiver.
This fitting in 1/8” and 3/16” cable sizes can also be used in pitched applications using the same method (including a horizontally drilled hole) described previously. This fitting is commonly paired with a Pull-Lock® on the opposite end of the run. The Receiver/Pull-Lock® terminal combination is available in our 1/8” and 3/16” kit offerings.
