A guy form a coastal marina called me last month—he'd been replacing swage terminals every season because salt spray was chewing through them, and he wanted something that would actually hold up on a 40-foot catamaran, so we walked through the batch consistency we maintain, and I sent him our latest test reports showing zero pitting after 500 hours in a salt fog chamber.
We typically run every lot through a tensile pull test at 80% of teh rated load, and the HPLC data on the nickel plating thickness comes back within a tight tolerance of 12 to 18 microns, which is better than what most importers get, and our SGS and TUV certificates are issued per batch, not just per model, so you can request a copy with your shipment—usually takes 2-3 days to generate.
For cable railing systems on a deck or a shade sail insallation, the M6 with coarse thread is pretty much the go-to, but if you're mixing these with existing UNF hardware, you'll want to confirm the thread pitch because the fine option isn't always in stock, and honestly, this terminal isn't suited for load appliction like winch lines where you'd need a forged eyelet instead—it's a static fitment, that's just how it is.
Anyway, if you're ordering, our company can do OEM packging with your own part number, and the MOQ on the polished nickel white finish is 50 units per size, give or take, but we usually have stock on M5 and M8 ready to ship in 10 business days or so.
We can do as few as 100 pieces per size for stock items, but if you need custom threads or finishes, the MOQ usually starts at 500 pieces per size.
Once you approve the design and sample, production usually takes 20-25 working days, plus shipping time. Rush orders can be arranged for an extra fee.
They cover both — we can provide certificates for the 316/304 stainless steel material we use and also for the final product's corrosion resistance and thread accuracy.
We offer both coarse and fine threads, so yes, we can do UNF fine threads in M5, M6, and M8. Just specify the thread pitch you need when ordering.
We pack them in sealed plastic bags with silica gel desiccant, then into sturdy cardboard boxes. This keeps the polished nickel finish from tarnishing during storage.
