Dayton 304 Stainless Steel Cable 1/8 in 500 ft 420 lb WLL
Stainless steel cable for lifting and pulling, 500 ft length with 420 lb working load limit
- 304 stainless steel resists corrosion in harsh environments
- 420 lb working load limit supports heavy lifting tasks
- 500 ft continuous length reduces splice points
- 1x7 strand construction provides stiffness for straight pulls
- 2,100 lbf breaking strength adds safety margin
Cable Material & Capacity
This Dayton cable uses 304 stainless steel in a 1 x 7 strand construction with an IWRC core. It is supplied in a 500 ft length with a 1/8 in diameter and a 420 lb working load limit for lifting tasks.
Sustained Load Behaviour
The wire rope has a breaking strength of 2,100 lbf, giving a safety margin above the working load limit. Unlubricated and uncoated, it relies on the corrosion resistance of the stainless alloy during prolonged tension rather than surface treatments.
Interface & Practical Limits
Plain ends mean the cable must be terminated with compatible fittings before use. The material carries California Proposition 65 warnings for cancer and reproductive harm, so handling precautions apply in regulated environments.

Questions about this item
Does the 304 stainless steel cable generate heat or require power during continuous lifting use?
The cable is a passive wire rope with no moving parts, lubrication, or electrical components, so it produces no heat and draws no power during operation.
What fittings or terminations must I already have to attach this plain-end cable?
The ends are plain and uncoated, so you will need separate thimbles, clips, swage sleeves, or other hardware suited to 1/8 in diameter and 420 lb working load limit.
Will this 1x7 construction cable work with older sheaves or winches designed for more flexible rope?
The 1x7 strand construction is stiffer than higher-strand ropes, so verify your existing sheave groove radius and drum diameter can accommodate the reduced bend flexibility.
