Apex Tools Group Llc 7000697 Vinyl Coated Galvanized Cable 250 Ft

Product Description

The APEX TOOLS GROUP LLC 7000697 is a clear vinyl coated galvanized steel cable designed for rigging, securing, and general utility applications in trade and industrial environments. The cable measures 3/16 inches in bare wire diameter and expands to 1/4 inch overall with the clear vinyl coating applied, running a full 250 feet per reel. It is constructed with a 7x19 strand configuration, which delivers a flexible, fatigue-resistant design suited for applications involving bends, pulleys, or repeated movement. The rated working load limit is 840 pounds. Electricians, general contractors, and maintenance technicians commonly install this type of cable for wire management, safety lines, and structural tie-down work.

This coated galvanized cable is appropriate for both indoor and outdoor installations where corrosion resistance and a clean appearance are required. The clear vinyl jacket protects the galvanized steel core from moisture, abrasion, and environmental exposure without obscuring the wire beneath. The 250-foot reel length makes it practical for larger projects or jobs requiring continuous runs without splicing. Common applications include cable railing systems, overhead lifelines, equipment tie-downs, and conduit or duct support hangers in commercial and light industrial settings.

Key Features

• 3/16 inch bare wire diameter with 1/4 inch overall coated diameter
• 7x19 strand construction for flexibility and bend resistance
• 840 LB working load limit for reliable load-bearing use
• Clear vinyl coating over galvanized steel for corrosion and abrasion protection
• 250-foot continuous reel minimizes splices on longer runs

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4 inch cable fittings, swage terminals, clamps, and thimbles compatible with 7x19 strand flexible wire rope in 1/4 inch nominal diameter.

Installation Notes

This cable is typically installed by riggers, general contractors, or maintenance technicians using standard wire rope tools including cable cutters, swaging tools, and cable clamps. Ensure all end fittings are rated for the 840 LB working load limit or greater before tensioning. Inspect the vinyl coating for nicks or breaches before installation, as damaged coating can allow moisture ingress and accelerate corrosion at the wire core. Follow all applicable load and rigging standards for the specific application.
