Angle Tension Kit

Mount into holes on metal posts to tension angled runs of cable.

Each pack of cable kits will tension one end of a run of cable. If your railing system is 36” tall, you’ll generally need a 10 pack of kits for each end of the run. You’ll need an 11 pack for a 39” system, and a 12 pack for a 42” system. This allows the cable to be spaced less than 4” apart, which is required to meet code.
