The 3/16" Aluminum Sleeve, Bag of 100, is used for making and repairing garage door cable assemblies, wire rope loops, and cable connections. These aluminum sleeves are designed for use with compatible 3/16" galvanized aircraft cable and are commonly used by garage door technicians, commercial door companies, maintenance teams, and cable assembly shops.

Aluminum cable sleeves, also called swage sleeves, cable crimps, or wire rope ferrules, are used to form a secure loop end or connect cable sections when properly compressed with the correct swaging tool. They are an important part of garage door cable fabrication and are commonly used with lift cables, safety cables, commercial door cables, and other overhead door cable assemblies where 3/16" cable is required.

This 100-piece bag is ideal for service trucks, garage door shops, commercial overhead door technicians, and maintenance departments that regularly cut and build replacement cable assemblies.

Compatibility & Fitment

These aluminum sleeves are intended for compatible 3/16" wire rope or galvanized aircraft cable. Before ordering or fabricating a cable assembly, confirm the cable diameter, cable construction, door type, drum type, required cable length, bottom fixture setup, and correct sleeve size.

The sleeve size should match the cable diameter. Do not use a 3/16" sleeve on the wrong cable size unless the cable manufacturer or door manufacturer specifically allows it. Incorrect sleeve sizing or improper crimping can cause cable slippage, cable failure, unsafe door operation, or damage to the door system.

These sleeves are not pre-made cables and do not include cable, stops, thimbles, tools, or other fittings unless listed separately.

Installation Notes

Use the correct swaging/crimping tool for 3/16" aluminum sleeves and compatible cable. The sleeve must be compressed properly according to accepted cable fabrication practices. After crimping, inspect the sleeve, cable loop, and cable end to confirm the connection is secure and properly formed.

When making garage door lift cables, always confirm the correct cable length, loop size, end configuration, drum type, and bottom fixture connection before installation. Poorly fabricated cables can affect door balance, tracking, and safety.

Safety Notice

Garage door cables are part of a high-tension system that works with torsion springs, extension springs, drums, shafts, bottom fixtures, and door hardware. Incorrect cable fabrication or installation can cause serious injury, death, or property damage.

This product is intended for professional garage door and overhead door use. Cable assemblies should be made and installed only by trained technicians using proper tools, correct hardware, and safe procedures. Never operate a garage door with frayed, damaged, loose, incorrectly sized, or improperly crimped cables.
