Cable railing posts are designed to give you a modern railing with a stunning view. These posts will hold the tension for your lines of cable and attach to a beautiful handrail while grounding your railing and keeping everybody safe. Viewrail posts come in 3 different materials: aluminum, 304 stainless steel, and 2205 duplex stainless steel.

Kits use a combination of tensioning screws, barrel fittings, tension receivers, and threaded crimp fitting to mount to wooden and metal posts.
