304 Stainless Vinyl-Coated Rope
This 25 ft length of 304 stainless steel wire rope is coated in vinyl for corrosion resistance and smoother handling. It suits light-duty lifting, rigging or tensioning tasks around the yard, shop or site where a compact, low-stretch line is required. The 1/16 in cable diameter and 7 x 7 strand construction give a working load limit of 96 lb. It is not intended for overhead lifting of people or critical loads that demand certified rigging hardware.
Plain Ends Need Termination
The rope arrives with plain cut ends and no factory fittings, so the installer must add thimbles, clips, swage sleeves or knots appropriate to the load. Because the vinyl coating adds bulk, clips sized for bare 1/16 in rope may not grip securely; use hardware rated for the 3/32 in overall diameter. Over-tightening clips on the coating can crush the core and reduce strength. The product is unlubricated, so field lubrication may extend service life in outdoor use.
96 lb Working Load Limit
The single figure that determines suitability is the 96 lb working load limit, derived from a 480 lbf breaking strength with a 5:1 design factor. If the applied tension — including dynamic shock — can exceed 96 lb, this rope is the wrong choice. The vinyl coating does not increase the rated capacity; it only protects the 304 stainless strands. Select a larger diameter or higher-grade construction when the load demand is greater.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 1/16 in wire rope is holding its 96 lb working load limit after installation?
Apply a known test weight up to 96 lb and verify the 7 x 7 strand construction shows no permanent deformation or strand slippage under load.
What comes with the 25 ft vinyl-coated stainless steel rope and what must I supply?
The box contains the 25 ft length of 304 stainless steel rope with vinyl coating, 7 x 7 construction, plain ends, unlubricated; you must provide thimbles, clips or other end fittings for termination.
Should I choose the 1/16 in diameter with 96 lb limit or a thicker version for a 25 ft run?
Select the 1/16 in diameter when your maximum applied load stays at or below 96 lb and the 3/32 in overall diameter fits your sheaves; choose a larger diameter only if you need a higher working load limit.
