Unless that hole is cleaned up real well, lots of them
Looks like the cable will take a lot of abuse where it comes through the bolt.3Ts

Why not use a thimble in that wire loop and use a clevis to join the loop with the spade bolt?

i would not expect that to last long. use a cast eye bolt and a thimble or use a quick link between the spade and cable with a thimble in it. I hope you are not using this for any kind of structural application.

Is that a $10. part that U want to get for $2.00?
That poor vendor has overheads and taxes to pay and U need to support the American economy, LOL.
Make American great!
Actually what you really want is a swaged threaded cable end like they use for aircraft control cables.
I used to have the tools to do that and actually still have cable and probably the ends somewhere.
The tooling to swadge the ends I sold long ago and it went for serious $$'s being a rare tool in high demand with builder plane types.
