Description
Overview:
The Solderless Nipple 7mm is a compact, metal cable end for securing inner control cables on bicycles and small machinery. It uses a side clamping screw to lock the cable in place, so no soldering is required. With a 7 mm (0.28 in) barrel diameter and a 2 mm (0.08 in) cable hole, it suits common brake and throttle inner wires. Ideal for bicycle brake systems and throttle/choke linkages on garden and construction equipment, it helps with repairs, custom cable builds, and adjustments. Built for reliable, everyday use, it offers a neat, secure termination where a fixed head is missing or worn. Manufacturer Part Number: 405 452.
Key Features:
- Solderless, side-screw design for quick, straightforward fitting in the workshop or on-site
- 7 mm (0.28 in) compact barrel fits many brake levers and small cable drums
- 2 mm (0.08 in) through-hole suits typical inner wires used for brakes and throttles
- Robust metal construction for dependable retention and long service life
- Secure clamping screw helps prevent cable slip under load when correctly installed
- Reusable for adjustments and cable replacements (inspect threads and screw before reuse)
- Useful for emergency repairs when a soldered or factory-fitted head is not available
- Compatible with common stainless or galvanised inner control cables
- Suitable for general mechanical linkages where a small barrel end is needed
Typical Applications:
Bicycle brake inner wire terminations (e.g. caliper, V-brake), throttle and choke controls on lawnmowers, generators, strimmers, and other small engines, as well as T‐handle pull cables. Also used in light mechanical linkages and custom cable assemblies where a reliable barrel end is required without soldering.
Also known as:
Screw-on cable nipple, cable end stop, barrel end, universal barrel nipple, wire cable clamp (small control cable), throttle cable end, cable pinch fitting, DIY cable end.
