For 4 mm wire (.156, about 5/32"), it has a breaking strength of 2700lbs and working load of 1750 lbs which appears to be the load of 1x19 wire.

They are priced at $7 per fitting.

Is this what you are looking at?



If so, I can't see how it would be of any use in rigging a boat. It is designed for railings and other light duty applications.
According to the website, it's only 7 cents. It's probably worth twice that.
