Rigging end terminals

Can anyone recommend a company in the area Florida Jacksonville who can shrimp-on, press-on, roll-on end terminals to stainless steel rigging wire?

Go with Hayne or StaLok mechanical terminals and you can easily do it yourself. Way better/safer than swaged terminals as well.

Re: Rigging end terminals

You could be absolutely right. I have no experience with those DIY terminals. Just by eyeballing them I get the shivers. How can so little surface hold so much force?

There must be some industrial business who shrimps terminals onto wires in this area? I could name at least 3 in the tiny place I come from.
