I've never come across the company, but the price seems ludicrous for 2 1/2 inches of cable. I'd be looking at steel cable, plenty of suppliers out there. If you can't find square section use round and buy a couple of square section ends. Might work, but it depends how the gear is fixed to the cable. Alternatively square section steel rod might work if cable is not necessary. Depends how much effort you want to put in searching!

Hi, that's a bad sign, my security won't let me access that site ! Probably best to avoid. That's the first time it's ever happened. Good luck !
