I want to order some push/pull cables for my shifter set up but I must have my hat screwed on bass ackwards. I want cables that have these threaded bulkhead ends (circled below) on both ends. I think. I don't want one end unsecured. TIA

Jesus H Christ, I read right past McMasters description in the begining. This is why I should be in bed by 2100hr's. I still don't see where CC Cables shows the double ended one but MC's is good enough. Thx Mike.

EDIT: Mike, did you use the 7-1 wrap sheath (large bend radius but very strong)

Thx Jim, you are a plethora of "Suby Thread" info! My confusion was over the dual bulkhead ftg's but Mike 'splained it to me, properly. I hadn't seen Bob's version, though. Thx, kent

Although McMaster-Carr is a good source, I prefer to use Control Cables Inc. Same product as McM-C (CableCraft), but they make them to customer specs (any length, any end, any bulkhead, etc) on site. One phone call and a credit card, and you're done. Much faster than McM-C, and you can talk directly to the experts. I've used them for many years, and many projects. BTW, my experience has been that the CableCraft product is better than MORSE.
