Release Tool for RDI Cable Fittings
What it is
The RDI Cable Rail Release Tool is a small accessory tool designed to help release the jaws of RDI CableRail quick-connect fittings so you can remove or reposition cable during installation or adjustments. This is helpful when routing or adjusting stainless steel cable in an RDI cable railing system without damaging the fittings or cable.
Key Features:
- Designed as an installation aid for RDI CableRail components.
- Releases quick-connect fitting jaws easily so the cable can be re-adjusted or removed.
- Typically made of marine-grade 316 stainless steel, making it durable and weather resistant for outdoor use.
- Reusable design — not a single-use part.
- Can reduce installation time and effort compared to trying to manipulate fittings by hand.
How It Works:
During cable railing installs — especially with systems like RDI’s — quick-connect fittings clamp onto the cable with spring-loaded jaws. The release tool fits into the fitting and forces the jaws open just enough to let you slide the cable out or reposition it, which is often needed before final tensioning.
