Apex Tools Group Llc T7000226 Ss Cable Reel 1/16 in 250 Ft

Product Description

The APEX TOOLS GROUP LLC T7000226 is a stainless steel cable reel supplying 250 feet of 1/16-inch diameter, 7x7-strand wire rope. The 7x7 construction — seven strands of seven wires each — delivers a balance of flexibility and tensile strength suited to light-duty rigging, cable rail systems, marine hardware, and general-purpose fastening applications. At 2.25 pounds, the reel is compact enough for field use. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, saltwater, and outdoor environments. This product ships as a single-unit reel and is handled by contractors, riggers, and marine service professionals.

This cable reel is appropriate for residential and light commercial projects where a flexible, corrosion-resistant wire rope is required. Common applications include cable railing installations, sailboat rigging, safety tethers, and tensioning assemblies. The 1/16-inch diameter is a standard size for low-load runs where a slim profile and easy routing through hardware fittings is necessary. Installers working in coastal or high-humidity environments will benefit from the stainless steel alloy's corrosion resistance over galvanized alternatives.

Key Features

• 7x7 strand construction provides flexibility suitable for bending around fittings and through pulleys
• 1/16-inch diameter fits standard swage fittings, thimbles, and cable rail hardware for that size
• Stainless steel material resists rust and corrosion in marine and outdoor environments
• 250-foot continuous reel length reduces the need for mid-run splices on longer runs
• Lightweight reel at 2.25 pounds for easy handling and transport on the job site

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/16-inch 7x7 stainless steel wire rope reel compatible with swage terminals, crimp sleeves, and cable rail fittings sized for 1/16-inch cable.

Installation Notes

Wire rope installation is typically performed by riggers, marine technicians, or finish carpenters depending on the application. Always use the correct swage or crimp tooling rated for the cable diameter — improper termination is a leading cause of premature fitting failure. Measure and cut cable with proper wire rope cutters to avoid fraying the strand ends. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling and unspooling wire rope.
