Apex Tools Group Llc 7000426 Ss Cable 1/8 in 7x7 Type 316 250 Ft

Product Description

The APEX TOOLS GROUP LLC 7000426 is a 250-foot reel of 1/8-inch diameter, 7x7 construction Type 316 stainless steel cable designed for high-strength, flexible wire rope applications. The 7x7 strand configuration — seven strands of seven wires each — delivers a balance of tensile strength and flexibility suited to dynamic or multi-directional load applications. Type 316 stainless steel provides superior corrosion resistance compared to Type 304, making this cable appropriate for marine, coastal, and chemically exposed environments. Licensed contractors, riggers, and marine trades install this cable in applications where corrosion resistance and long service life are required.

This cable is commonly used in marine rail systems, deck rigging, balustrade infill, cable management, and light mechanical control applications. The 250-foot reel format reduces field splicing and allows installers to cut custom lengths on the job. Its flexibility makes it practical in applications requiring routing around bends or through sheaves and pulleys. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations where stainless steel is specified.

Key Features

• 7x7 strand construction for enhanced flexibility compared to 7x19 or 1x19 configurations
• Type 316 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance in marine and harsh environments
• 1/8-inch diameter suitable for light-to-medium load and decorative structural applications
• 250-foot reel format minimizes field splices and reduces material waste
• High-strength construction supports demanding rigging and tensioning systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supply-grade cable for standard 1/8-inch wire rope fittings, swage terminals, and cable end connectors rated for 7x7 stainless steel wire rope.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed marine riggers, structural cable installers, or qualified contractors familiar with wire rope hardware. All terminations should be made using fittings rated for 7x7 stainless steel cable of the specified diameter. Consult applicable building codes and load specifications before tensioning cable in structural or fall-protection applications. Inspect cable ends for fraying or kinking before installation and avoid sharp-radius bends that can reduce rated strength.
