Hi Richard, 
So yours must be the dull stuff too? I'll check the ACS catalogue again, but
 I thought that's all they sold, the Stainless Steel stuff. Funny that it's O
k in the US, where most of the worlds aviating occurs, but I understand bure
aucracy. Thanks for the definitive answer. This stuff I have has been in a 1
5" dia roll since 1996. Do you think that is a concern?
Regards 
Tony Renshaw

ropa but get plated Nicropress sleeves.

one that correctly. I placed the second one up against the other one, and as
 they compress, we know they exude outward, even a little bit. I reckon the c

uite a lot. Whatever stress it is preloaded is an equivalent weight, which i
n essence would minimise the stress loading on the cable.
