1/4 in 25 ft Stainless Cable
This Dayton cable is a 1/4 inch diameter, 25 foot length wire rope made from 304 stainless steel. It is designed for lifting, pulling and conveying tasks where corrosion resistance is required. The construction uses a 1 x 19 strand classification with an independent wire rope core.
Working Load Limit 1640 lb
The cable carries a working load limit of 1640 lb and a breaking strength of 8200 lbf. It is unlubricated and uncoated with plain cut ends. The material is rated for lifting capability and the bend radius is listed as not applicable for this construction.
Replaces worn or undersized rope
This cable replaces worn, corroded or lower rated wire rope in existing rigging, winch or hoist assemblies. The jump is worth it when the application demands 304 stainless steel for outdoor or marine exposure and a verified working load limit of 1640 lb. It does not suit buyers who need a coated cable, pre-formed loops or a different diameter for their hardware.

Questions about this item
How is the 1/4 in stainless cable secured for lifting, and what mistake do people make with the plain ends?
The cable has plain ends with no fittings, so you must add your own thimbles, clips or swaged terminals. The common error is using undersized clips or skipping the thimble, which lets the 1 x 19 strands slip under the 1 640 lb working load limit.
What maintenance or replacement will the unlubricated 304 stainless cable need over time?
Without factory lubrication the 1 x 19 construction relies on external oil or grease to prevent strand wear and corrosion. Inspect for broken wires, rust or diameter loss regularly; replace the 25 ft length once any strand damage appears or the cable no longer meets the 1 640 lb WLL.
What limit appears first when the cable is cycled repeatedly near its 1 640 lb working load?
Fatigue at the termination points shows up first. The plain ends concentrate bending stress on the stiff 1 x 19 strands, so wire breaks typically start at the clips or sleeves long before the 8 200 lbf breaking strength is approached.
