Sta Lok manufacture the ultimate riggings screws in stainless steel and bronze. They are widely used on prestige yachts and by architects. Flints can offer advice on the correct selection of these products which can be supplied roll swaged onto your wire or with "fit yourself" Sta-Lok fittings. We can even supply wires with a left hand thread on one end and a right hand one on the other end so that the wire can be tensioned between drilled and tapped handrail posts without the need for rigging screws. If you have a project which involves unusual rigging applications we can probably help. Please phone and ask for our rigging manager.
Ordering Sta-Lok Rigging Screws
If you know the exact length of your wires we can have the end fittings and rigging screws roll swaged directly onto stainless wire rope. If you can not determine the final length or if the wires have to be threaded through holes then the best option is to order one end roll swaged to slightly over length wires and to purchase Sta-lok type fittings which can be easily fitted onsite. Sta-lok fittings must use stainless steel wire and the preferred wire construction for standing rigging and handrailing is 1x19 which is quite stiff. If the wires need to run over pulleys then 7x19 flexible wire rope is a better choice. Our rigging manager can advise you.
