Hand Crimp: Hand Crimp is available in 1/8" & 3/16" cable only. Fittings are attached to the cable using a simple hand tool (allows field installation). The completed fitting will provide approximately 65-70% of the 7x7 cable strength. We can provide the necessary tool.

Mechanical Terminal
Mechanical: Fittings are available for all cable sizes and are attached with simple hand tools. Mechanical fittings are more expensive than other means of attachment but develop full cable strength.
