Galvanized Steel Cable 100 ft
This Dayton cable is a 100 ft length of 3/16 in galvanized steel wire rope. It uses a 7x19 strand construction with an IWRC core and a nylon coating. The working load limit is 840 lb and the breaking strength is 4,200 lbf. It is supplied plain-ended and unlubricated for general lifting and pulling tasks.
Rigging and Utility Use
The cable suits riggers, maintenance teams and DIY users who need a flexible, corrosion-resistant line for hoisting, winching or securing loads within the 840 lb limit. Buyers who require a larger diameter, a higher working load limit or factory-fitted end terminals should look at alternative specifications. The plain ends also mean termination hardware must be sourced separately.
840 lb Working Load Limit
The single figure that decides suitability is the 840 lb working load limit. Every lift or pull must stay at or below this value to maintain the design safety factor. Exceeding it risks sudden failure regardless of the 4,200 lbf breaking strength. Verify the load case before installation.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 3/16 in 7x19 galvanized steel cable and what step is often missed?
Measure the 100 ft length, cut cleanly with cable cutters, seize both ends to prevent the 7x19 strands from unlaying, then attach proper terminations; the step most people skip is seizing before cutting.
What maintenance or replacement will this 840 lb WLL cable need over time?
Inspect the nylon coating and galvanized steel wires regularly for wear, corrosion, broken strands or kinks; replace the cable immediately if any 7x19 strand damage is found or the coating is compromised.
What limit appears first when this 4,200 lbf breaking strength cable runs under sustained load?
The 840 lb working load limit is the governing limit; exceeding it reduces the 5:1 design factor and risks permanent deformation of the galvanized steel core before the breaking strength is reached.
