Lifting wire rope, 25 ft length
This Dayton wire rope measures 25 ft overall and is built from 304 stainless steel with a 6 x 19 strand construction. It has a working load limit of 4,560 lb and a breaking strength of 22,800 lbf. The cable features an IWRC core and plain ends with no lubrication or coating applied.
Suited for general lifting tasks.
The rope handles standard lifting and pulling jobs where a 1/2 in diameter and the rated capacities match the load requirements. It is uncoated and unlubricated, so buyers who need a galvanised finish, plastic jacket or pre-lubricated line should look at something else. The plain ends also mean users requiring thimbles, hooks or swaged terminations must add their own hardware.
Working load limit 4,560 lb decides fit
The 4,560 lb working load limit is the single figure that determines whether this rope can safely handle the intended load. If the application demands a higher capacity, this specification makes the product unsuitable regardless of its length or material.

Questions about this item
How do you install the 1/2 in Dayton wire rope and what step is often missed?
Measure the 25 ft length, then secure the plain ends with properly sized clips or thimbles; the step many skip is matching clip size to the 1/2 in diameter and applying the correct torque.
What maintenance or replacement will the 304 stainless steel IWRC rope need later?
Inspect regularly for broken wires, corrosion or kinking; replace the rope once wear reduces the working load limit below 4560 lb or when visible damage appears on the 6 x 19 strands.
What limit shows up first when the 25 ft cable is under sustained load near its rating?
The 4560 lb working load limit is reached well before the 22800 lbf breaking strength, so sustained loads must stay at or below the WLL to avoid permanent deformation.
