Apex Tools Group Llc 7000897 Vinyl Coated Cable 200 Ft

Product Description

The APEX TOOLS GROUP LLC 7000897 is a vinyl coated galvanized steel cable designed for rigging, securing, and general utility applications across trade and industrial environments. The cable measures 1/4 inch bare diameter, coating up to 5/16 inch finished diameter, and runs 200 feet in length. It is constructed in a 7x19 strand configuration, which delivers a balance of flexibility and tensile strength suited to applications requiring frequent bending or routing around sheaves. The working load limit is rated at 1,400 pounds. At 27 pounds per coil, this is a full-service spool appropriate for contractors, riggers, and facility maintenance crews.

This cable fits residential and light commercial applications including cable railing systems, guy wire installations, overhead lifts, winch lines, and tie-down configurations. The vinyl coating provides corrosion resistance and protects adjacent surfaces from abrasion. The galvanized core adds a second layer of corrosion protection, making this cable suitable for outdoor and semi-exposed environments. Trade professionals working in construction, electrical utility, pool enclosure, and marine-adjacent applications commonly specify this type of coated galvanized cable for its durability and handling ease.

Key Features

• 7x19 strand construction for flexibility and fatigue resistance during repeated bending
• Vinyl coating brings finished diameter to 5/16 inch and protects against corrosion and surface abrasion
• Galvanized steel core provides additional corrosion resistance for outdoor use
• 1,400 LB working load limit rated for light rigging and securing tasks
• 200-foot length supplied per coil, minimizing splices on longer runs
• 27-pound coil weight suited for jobsite handling by a single installer

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose vinyl coated galvanized cable for use with standard 1/4 inch cable fittings, swage terminals, cable clamps, and thimbles compatible with 1/4 inch to 5/16 inch diameter cable.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger or contractor familiar with applicable load and safety standards. Always verify that all end fittings, clamps, and anchoring hardware are rated for at least the working load limit of the cable before tensioning. Inspect the cable for kinking, bird-caging, or broken strands prior to installation, as these defects reduce rated capacity. Never exceed the stated working load limit; consult applicable ASME or OSHA standards for safety factors required by your application.
