This Cable Lacing Needle from Feeney helps to quickly lace 1/8-inch cable ends through posts without snagging. CableRail assemblies are typically laced through holes drilled in wood posts and occasionally during installation, the wires at the end of the cable can splay open and catch on the wood fibers inside the post drill holes which slows down the installation process. To alleviate this issue, a Cable Lacing Needle can be slipped over the end of the bare cable to snugly encapsulate the cable end and keep it from fraying. The slim tapered shape of this needle easily and quickly guides the cable through the post holes. Once a cable has been successfully laced, simply pull the needle off to reuse it for the next cable.
Note: Lacing Needles must be removed before inserting the cable end into the Quick-Connect fittings.
