Kwik-Loc Cable Jointers & Aircraft Cable Loops

Lexco Cable supplies Kwik-Loc® cable jointers, a fast way to create adjustable loops in aircraft cable without traditional swaging equipment. Kwik-Locs are available for aircraft cable ranging from 1/32″ to 1/4″ in diameter, across the KL50, KL75, KL100, KL150, KL200, and KL600 size range.

Because Kwik-Locs are field-installable, they’re commonly used to suspend static loads for lighting, signage, gallery and retail displays, ductwork, cable trays, sound systems, CCTV cameras, and other secondary support applications. 

Choosing the Right Kwik-Loc Size

Kwik-Loc size selection depends primarily on cable diameter and the load being suspended. Lighter-duty sizes like the KL50 and KL75 suit small signage and gallery lighting, while heavier-duty sizes like the KL200 and KL600 are built for HID lighting, fan coil units, and other services with higher safe working load requirements.

Matching the jointer to the cable diameter and application load helps ensure a secure, properly rated suspension point for the intended use.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cable Jointer

What are cable jointers used for?2026-10-06T20:52:07+00:00

Cable jointers create adjustable loops in aircraft cable for suspending static loads. Common uses include lighting, signage, gallery and retail displays, ductwork, cable trays, sound systems, CCTV cameras, and other secondary support applications.

What is a Kwik-Loc cable jointer?2026-10-06T20:52:41+00:00

A Kwik-Loc is a wire rope fitting that creates a field-installed loop in aircraft cable without traditional swaging equipment. It’s available in several sizes to match different cable diameters and load requirements.

How do I choose the right Kwik-Loc size?2026-10-06T20:53:20+00:00

Selection depends on cable diameter and the safe working load required for the application. Smaller sizes such as the KL50 and KL75 suit lightweight signage and lighting, while larger sizes such as the KL200 and KL600 are built for heavier loads and higher safe working load limits.

Can cable jointers be used for overhead suspension?2026-08-06T20:58:18+00:00

Yes. Cable jointers are commonly used for overhead suspension of static loads, including lighting, ducts, cable trays, and displays. The correct cable jointer must be selected based on the cable diameter, load requirements, and installation conditions. For critical or load-sensitive applications, it is important to confirm compatibility before installation.

What information should I provide when requesting a quote for cable jointers?2026-08-06T20:59:06+00:00

When requesting a quote, provide the aircraft cable diameter, required Kwik-Loc size if known, suspended load weight, application type, installation environment, and any required hardware or cable assembly details. If available, include drawings, photos, specifications, or part numbers so Lexco can recommend the right cable jointer or aircraft cable assembly.

What are wire hooks used for?2026-10-07T16:27:18+00:00

Wire hooks are used to connect wire rope, aircraft cable, or chain to a load for lifting, towing, and other heavy-duty rigging applications. They’re available with rigid eye, swivel eye, and clevis end connectors to match different attachment needs.
