Digby 5 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Hello PK, Have you tried www.s3i.co.uk? They have a large selection of wire cables,differing sizes and flexibilities, plus ferrules, crimping tools etc. I bought cables, ferrules and an Ormiston crimping tool from them, to make ground anchors etc. They are good to deal with too. ATB, Digby. Quote Link to post

ATB, Digby. Is stainless steel ok or do we need the aircraft cable, s3i.co.uk, 1x19 s/s cable is 3/64 in which Imo should be good for Mink Quote Link to post
Digby 5 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 I bought the 316 marine grade 1 x 19 s/s cable, it was perfect for my use. I think that S3i will sell a 1 metre length, so it's cheap enough to buy a short length to see if it's suits your purpose? Their video explains the stiffness of each cable. Quote Link to post
