Peddy Shield Set of 4 Brake Stops for Locking Shade Sail on Wire Rope - Light Grey
Code: OZ_PD-09-77-01-2XProduct detailed description
What is a shade sail brake stop set and how does it work?
This set of 4 light grey brake stops, measuring 23x35 mm, is used to firmly secure a shade sail on a stainless steel wire rope with a diameter of 2 mm. These stops prevent the sail from shifting on its own due to light wind or gravity on sloped terrace roofs. The system keeps the shade sail in the set position, while still allowing it to be quickly retracted in strong wind.
What are the functional positions of the patented brake stop?
The stop has two attachment positions for the rope, which change its clamping force. In the first position, the rope is inserted into the first notch, so the stop slides freely without risk of losing its place. In the second position, the rope snaps into the second notch, where the brake stop firmly holds the sail while still allowing it to be moved using a control pole.
When is it advisable to use stops on a wire shading system?
Brake stops are important for protecting the glazing of winter gardens with a slope greater than 10°, where gravity causes the sails to slide on their own. By placing two stops at the ends of the steel rope, the sail is securely fixed in a rolled-up position. In this position, it has minimal surface area exposed to wind, protecting it from damage during storms.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Brake Stop for Shade Sail
What diameter of steel rope are the brake stops suitable for?
The brake stops are designed exclusively for stainless steel wire ropes with a diameter of 2 mm and a smooth surface. Thicker or rougher industrial ropes reduce sliding ability and damage the internal mechanism of the brake stop.
Does the brake stop lock the sail on the rope completely tight?
The brake stop does not lock the sail completely. In braking mode, it creates enough resistance to keep the sail stable under tilt or wind, but it can still be moved by hand or with a control pole.
How many stops will I need for one sail?
For optimal fixation in the end position, we recommend using two brake stops on the upper cable (on the right and left). For roofs with a slope greater than 10°, add another brake stop on the lower rope as well.
Does the material resist frost and strong sunlight?
The brake stops are made of high-quality polymer with high UV stability and frost resistance. The material does not become brittle at low temperatures nor does it yellow under long-term exposure to sunlight.
