Description
Overview:
The Solderless Nipple 6mm is a compact, screw-clamp metal fitting used to terminate and secure control cables without soldering. It is designed for Pull T cables, throttles, and bicycle brakes, giving a reliable cable stop where a factory end is missing or damaged. The top screw type clamp grips the cable inner securely for consistent operation. With an outer diameter of 6 mm (0.24 inches) and a through-hole of 2 mm (0.08 inches), it accepts cable inners up to 2 mm in diameter, which suits many throttle and brake applications. Ideal for workshop repairs or on-site fixes, it helps you set up or restore control on bicycles and small petrol-powered equipment such as lawnmowers and compact garden machinery. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 405 451.
