Rounded T-Ball / Shroud Terminal Fittings


Rounded T-Balls listed here are an evolution of the standard Navtec/Gibb T-Balls originally introduced by Gibb in the early 1980's. Also known as Shroud Terminals and commonly referred to as 'Lollipops', they are stronger than the original T-Balls due to a reduced head angle, and require different Backing Plates. See: 'Rounded' T-Ball Backing Plates.

The 'Rounded' T-Ball Backing Plates provide the same sleek, lightweight, non-protruding Mast attachment for Rigging as Original T-Ball Backing Plates with the advantage of being installed in a Round Hole.
Common fittings for them include Swage and Mechanical terminals for Wire, as well as those for attachment of Fiber and Rod fittings.
*Please note that swage terminals are meant for professional installation only, and must be assembled with specialized swaging machines by professionals.
