The Cable Bullet line post is a sleek, structural pass-through post, designed to support both your cables and top rail, with the smallest visual footprint possible.
Line posts are made from solid T6061 tempered aluminum for maximum yield strength. Each post includes pre-drilled cable pass-through holes every 3 inches on center, optimally sized for use with 5/32" diameter cable (max.). The elongated, tapered hole design offers the necessary support on level runs, while still allowing the cable to pass through without kinking along sloped spans.
Combine these posts with Signature series side mount tensioning posts, or add them as infill for custom side mount wood railing. Use cable spacer bars to maximize the view from your deck, patio, or stairway.
Please Note: Side-mount brackets are optimized for use on wood structures only and should not be attached to concrete or stone! Mounting screw holes are tightly spaced to maximize their holding strength in wood. However, in a masonry application, this highly increases the likelihood of damage between adjacent pilot holes, compromising the safety of your railing. Signature series top mount posts are designed for use in most masonry applications.
Designed with an ultra-sleek 3/8-inch profile. With these posts, you have far less obstruction to your view compared to traditional 2-inch posts. Posts mount to the outside face of your deck or stairs to maximize your surface area.
You won't have to worry about the strength of your railing again! Each intermediate is machined from high-quality aluminum and provides structural support for your top rail.
For simple, aesthetic results, each post features tapered, elongated holes for cables to pass through seamlessly. Use on both straight and angled runs without kinking the cables.
All components of the Signature series railing are proudly designed and made in the USA, including the aluminum post body and machined stainless steel top.
Each Signature series line post includes the following components:

PLEASE NOTE: Aluminum posts and handrail are NOT suitable for use in exterior coastal applications. Signature series railing is designed for inland exterior and interior projects. Exposure to salt will cause accelerated oxidation and galvanic corrosion between aluminum and stainless components.
