Description
Overview:
The Solderless Nipple 8mm is a compact cable fastener used to terminate or secure the inner wire on throttle controls and bicycle brake systems. Made from durable metal, it provides a reliable hold without any soldering. A top screw type clamp grips the cable, allowing quick fitting and straightforward adjustment with a screwdriver. The 8 mm body diameter (0.31 inches) suits many lever seats and throttle linkages, while the 2.5 mm cable hole (0.10 inches) accommodates common inner wire sizes used on small engines and pedal cycles. Suitable for workshop maintenance and on-the-spot repairs, it helps restore smooth, positive control action. Supplied under MPN 405 453, it is a practical choice for gardeners, cyclists, DIY users, and trades who service throttle and brake cables.
