Product Advantage

  • Completely Invisible: With our patent invisible flattened tail design, you can hide the ugly swaged end inside the wood post to get a neat appearance. You also need to tension the cables to ensure sufficient tension (recommended 200 pounds) to pass the 4" sphere test to meet regulatory requirements. The customized socket wrench Muzata CT16 (included in the package) is essential for the invisible installation and keeps the cable from spinning when tightening. 
  • Reusable: Most cable railing hardware for wood posts becomes irreparable after swaging with stainless steel cable. If you make a measurement mistake or need adjustments, you'll have to waste materials and start over. However, with this tensioner, you can simply replace the aluminum sleeve and reuse the tension screw without damaging the tensioner itself. This feature allows you to remeasure or rebuild the cable railing system with ease.
  • One-Post Corner Solution: With a well-designed compact body, you could use two invisible lag screws at one corner post of 4"x4" to 10"x10", and they won't hit each other. This can save you one post and enhance the aesthetic appeal. Additionally, this tensioner can be used on both horizontal and angled sections without the need for angled washers.
  • T316 Stainless Steel Material: The tensioner is made of 316 stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and durability. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, and can even be used in coastal or humid environments.
  • Match Your Style: Designed specifically for light-colored wood posts (such as light oak or white ash). If your posts are darker in color, we recommend choosing the Muzata CR73 with black adhesive sleeves for better visual harmony.

Note

  • This tensioner is specifically designed for wooden posts and is only compatible with wood. It features a crimp-style design that requires a hydraulic crimper (Muzata CR09) for installation.
  • The Muzata CR73 tensioner has a maximum tensioning distance of 20 feet. For spans exceeding 20 feet, you can choose to increase the number of CR73 tensioners, adjust the post layout, or use hardware with higher tensioning capacity. If you have any questions about the product usage, feel free to contact the Muzata team, and we will provide assistance.

Worked as it should

Very easy to install, nice sheet of information included. Plenty of extra aluminum stoppers if the cable is too long. It would be helpful to add a video (or photos) of the installation showing when you insert the cable through the lag portion, to have the stopper right behind so the individual steel threads don't spread. I learned that as trial and error, hard on my fingers too.
Almost invisible when installed, you look right past them!

Thank you for your valuable feedback. We are delighted to hear that our product has met your expectations and that you found the information sheet helpful. We genuinely appreciate your suggestions and will certainly take them into consideration as we continue to enhance our products and installation instructions. If you are satisfied with our products and services, we would be grateful if you could share some pictures of your completed projects. This would not only serve as a reference for other customers but also inspire us to further improve the quality of our services and products. Thanks again for choosing Muzata!

Decent Product but beware of the recommended cable length

If you have the right tools and read the directions, this is a moderately easy product to use. However, the recommended cable length allowance first f 1-17/64 iOS too long. Once I figured out the appropriate dimension of approximately 1-1/16, the rest of the project went very smoothly.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback and we're glad to hear that you found our product easy to use. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the recommended cable length allowance. We will take note of your feedback and report to our R&D department for further evaluation. Thank you for choosing Muzata!
