1/16 in Galvanized Steel Cable 500 ft
This galvanized steel cable measures 1/16 inch in diameter and provides a 500-foot length on a single spool. It uses a 7x7 strand construction with an IWRC core and carries a working load limit of 96 lb. A nylon coating adds corrosion resistance and a silver finish. The product is supplied new and rated for lifting applications.
Suits Light Lifting and Rigging Tasks
The 96 lb working load limit and 480 lbf breaking strength make this cable appropriate for light-duty lifting, pulling, and conveying where minimal stretch is required. Buyers who need higher load capacities or larger diameters should consider alternative wire rope specifications. The plain ends require separate termination hardware for most installations. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.
Nylon Coating and Plain Ends
The nylon coating protects the galvanized steel from moisture and abrasion during storage and use. Plain-cut ends allow custom fitting with clips, sleeves, or thimbles chosen for the specific job. No lubrication is applied, so the cable runs clean in sheaves or pulleys. The IWRC core maintains rope shape under repeated bending cycles.

Questions about this item
What end fittings or terminals do I need to attach to the plain ends of this 1/16 in cable for lifting?
The cable has plain ends, so you must supply thimbles, wire-rope clips or swaged sleeves rated for 1/16 in galvanized steel rope to create load-bearing terminations.
Will the 7x7 construction and 1/8 in overall diameter run smoothly over the sheaves on my existing hand winch?
The 7x7 strand pattern and 1/8 in coated diameter are flexible enough for small sheaves, but verify your winch groove is sized for 1/8 in rope to avoid pinching or excessive wear.
How can I confirm the nylon coating is intact and the cable has not been kinked after I unspool the 500 ft reel?
Visually inspect the full length for cuts, abrasion or flattened sections; the silver coating should be continuous and the rope should lay naturally without permanent bends.
