Hi Jamis.
The last time I purchased replacement hardware for my tower, I used
E-Rigging for wire rope and sleeves https://www.e-rigging.com/
<https://www.e-rigging.com/>
E-Rigging recommend using aluminum swaging sleeves with galvanized wire
rope: https://www.e-rigging.com/Aluminum-Hour-Glass-Sleeves_c_4867.html
<https://www.e-rigging.com/Aluminum-Hour-Glass-Sleeves_c_4867.html> and
zinc plated copper swaging sleeves with stainless steel wire rope:

I'm planning for some tower maintenance this summer, and while its
down, its probably time to replace the cable on the Hazer. The
original is 22 years old. It seems like Glen Martin is no longer in
the amateur business, and I cant find a replacement cable. Im not sure
what the crimps are called on the end, (nicropress?) but is this
something that can be fabricated if the proper tools are available?
