Structural Support With a Minimal Footprint

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.

Sleek, Minimal Profile

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.

Structural Support That Meets IRC Guidelines
