Description
Jaw Jaw Rigging Screw Thimble Swage Long Screw Eye LRTT Kit suits a run of wire of 10 meters or more(hence the LR or Long Run). There are two tensioning points and two attachment points. attachments are two 6mm x 75mm (Long) Lag Eye Screws. These attach directly into softwood or hardwood timber posts (hence the TT or Timber to Timber).
Application
The first end of the run has a 5mm Jaw / Jaw Rigging Screw (for wire tensioning) swaged to the wire. The jaw of this attaches to the first 75mm Screw Eye. The other Jaw attaches to the wire using a terminal loop formed with a ferrule and to Wire Rope Grips. The Screw Eye is fastens to a timber post or wall. Repeat the procedure to fasten to the second post or wall.
Wire may be installed through the intermediate posts and ‘cut to length’. Please make sure you expand the turnbuckles before measurement and drill the intermediate posts out to at least 4mm prior to swaging in place. Alternately, if you build the wire before you install it, then the length of a wire run is determined by the ‘inside to inside’ post measurement less a fixed amount which represents the distance between the attachment posts ‘taken up’ by the fittings when installed and adjusted properly.
This kit may also be used for ‘infill’ balustrading with the addition of extra Long Lag Screw Eyes.
