Dayton 3/16 in Galvanized Steel Cable
This Dayton cable is a 250 ft length of 7x19 galvanized steel wire rope designed for lifting and pulling tasks. It suits rigging professionals and maintenance teams who need a flexible, coated line with a verified working load limit. The nylon coating adds abrasion resistance while the silver finish aids visual inspection.
Sustained load behaviour
The independent wire rope core maintains structural integrity under continuous tension rather than deforming under repeated cycles. With a working load limit of 840 lb and a breaking strength of 4,200 lbf, the rope delivers a consistent 5:1 safety factor during prolonged lifts. Unlubricated construction means friction characteristics remain predictable over the full 250 ft run.
840 lb working load limit
The 840 lb working load limit is the single figure that determines whether this cable matches your application. Exceeding this value risks permanent deformation or sudden failure regardless of the higher breaking strength. Buyers who need a higher rated capacity must select a larger diameter or different construction.

Questions about this item
How much heat or noise does the 3/16 in galvanized cable produce when it runs under its 840 lb working load all day?
The cable is passive galvanized steel with a nylon coating; it generates no heat and makes no noise of its own while under load.
What fittings or hardware must I already have to terminate the plain ends of this 7x19 cable for lifting?
You will need compatible 3/16 in wire-rope clips, thimbles, sleeves or swage fittings rated for the 840 lb working load to secure the plain ends.
Will the 1/4 in overall diameter of this nylon-coated cable fit the sheaves and drums on my older 3/16 in wire-rope equipment?
The 1/4 in coated diameter is larger than bare 3/16 in rope, so existing sheaves or drums sized for uncoated cable may be too narrow.
