Feeney KIT90-PKG CableRail Tensioning Tool

Feeney Tensioning Tool with 90-Degree Adapter (KIT90-PKG)

The Feeney Tensioning Tool is an easy-to-use tool for tightening stainless steel cable runs that terminate with a Quick-Connect® Inset fitting. It efficiently pulls cable through the fitting and maximizes cable tension, making it ideal for long runs where consistent, controlled tension matters.

This kit includes the 90-Degree Adapter, which lets you tension cables in tight or restricted spaces, such as where a terminating post sits next to a wall, column, or other obstruction. The adapter slips into place and locks down with a thumb screw, so you can reach areas a standard tool cannot.

Key Features

• Controlled tension: A dial at the base of the handle sets the tension level, with a clear indicator running from "Start" up to "Max" so you never overtension a run.
• Audible feedback: An audible click and a slight kickback at the handles let you know the selected tension has been reached.
• Works in tight spaces: The included 90-Degree Adapter handles tensioning where a post is close to a wall or fixed surface.
• Fits two cable sizes: Compatible with both 1/8-in. and 3/16-in. diameter stainless steel CableRail using interchangeable guide plates.
• Interchangeable guide plates: The 1/8-in. guide plate comes pre-attached, and the 3/16-in. plate swaps in with two screws.

Specifications

• Compatible cable: 1/8-in. and 3/16-in. stainless steel CableRail
• Fitting type: Quick-Connect® Inset
• Included guide plates: 1/8-in. (SKU TNT : GP-0.125, pre-attached) and 3/16-in. (SKU TNT : GP-0.188)
• Minimum clearance with adapter: 2-1/2 in. gap between the Quick-Connect® post and the wall or fixed surface
• Minimum cable protrusion: 10 in. of cable out of the Quick-Connect® Inset fitting for proper grip

How It Works

1. Set the dial to "Start" to calibrate the tool to the lowest tension level.
2. Insert the tip of the guide plate into the Quick-Connect® Inset fitting.
3. Spread the handles to open the spring-loaded gripping jaw, then pass the cable through the grooved area and into the jaw.
4. Close the handles smoothly to tension the cable. Listen for the click and feel for the slight kickback that signals your target tension.
5. If slack remains, repeat the process a second time.
