Dayton 5/16 in Stainless Cable
This Dayton wire rope is a 50 ft length of 304 stainless steel cable rated for lifting and pulling tasks. It has a working load limit of 1660 lb and a breaking strength of 8300 lbf. The 6 x 37 strand construction with an IWRC core provides flexibility for rigging applications. The cable is unlubricated and uncoated with plain ends.
Verify Diameter and Load Requirements
Confirm that the 5/16 in diameter fits your sheaves, drums and terminations before ordering. Ensure the 1660 lb working load limit covers the maximum intended load with your required safety factor. Check that plain ends are compatible with your planned attachment method such as clips or thimbles. The unlubricated surface may require field lubrication depending on the application.
Suited for General Rigging and Lifting
This cable suits riggers needing corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel for lifting or pulling within the rated capacity. It is not for users who require a pre-lubricated rope or factory-fitted end terminations. Buyers needing a different diameter, length or higher working load limit should select an alternative specification. The product carries California Proposition 65 warnings for cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
Does the 50 ft length come with any end fittings or are they sold separately?
The cable has plain ends and is unlubricated; thimbles, clips or hooks must be purchased separately.
Should I choose the 5/16 in diameter or a different size for a 1,660 lb working load limit?
The 5/16 in diameter is the size rated for the 1,660 lb WLL; a different diameter would carry a different limit.
How does the 8,300 lbf breaking strength translate to safe rigging on site?
The 1,660 lb working load limit already applies a 5:1 design factor to the 8,300 lbf breaking strength; never exceed 1,660 lb in use.
