Adjust-A-Body With Hanger Bolt



The Adjust-A-Body With Hanger Bolt is a swaged, tensioning, face-of-the-post-mounted fitting that is recommended for level runs with 4x4 wooden posts only. This fitting is available for 1/8” and 3/16”diameter 1x19 stainless steel cable.

The Adjust-A-Body with Hanger Bolt can be used with any fitting on the opposite end of the run. The lag thread of the hanger bolt portion of the fitting is driven into a pre-drilled hole in the wood end post. The cable is retained within the body portion of the fitting by a ferrule swaged onto the end of the cable. The lock nut is installed all the way onto the hanger bolt first, followed by the body, which is secured onto the hanger bolt, creating tension on the cable. Once sufficient tension is achieved, the lock nut is secured against the end of the body to prevent the fitting from loosening.

We do not recommend this fitting being installed in pitched applications because it would require drilling all of the holes in the end post at an angle. While this is possible with special fixtures, if it is not done correctly the end result would be visually unacceptable.




Adjust-A-Body With Extended Length Hanger Bolt

The Adjust-A-Body With Extended Hanger Bolt is identical to the Adjust-A-Body With Hanger Bolt shown above, except it is used for sleeved posts with an outside diameter of greater that 4-1/2". The extended length hanger bolt is 3" long, designed to reach past sleeves and drywall to find the wood post or frame underneath.

We do not recommend this fitting being installed in pitched applications because it would require drilling all of the holes in the end post at an angle. While this is possible with special fixtures, if it is not done correctly, the end result would be visually unacceptable.




Adjust-A-Body With Threaded Eye & Threaded Tab

The Adjust-A-Body With Threaded Eye fitting is an exposed, swaged, tensioning, face-of-the-post-mounted fitting that can be used on level or pitched runs. This fitting is available for 1/8” and 3/16”” diameter 1x19 stainless steel cable.

The Adjust-A-Body With Threaded Eye can be used with any fitting on the opposite end of the run. This fitting attaches to the end post by installing a Threaded Tab into a pre-drilled and tapped hole in the end post and attaching the threaded eye portion of the fitting to the threaded tab with a button head screw. The cable is retained within the body portion of the fitting by a ferrule swaged onto the end of the cable. The lock nut is installed all the way onto the threaded eye first, followed by the body, which is secured onto the eye, creating tension on the cable. Once sufficient tension is achieved, the lock nut is secured against the end of the body to secure the fitting from loosening.

While this fitting can be used on pitched or level runs, it is most appropriate for pitched runs because the threaded eye portion of the fitting pivots at the tab.
