Value Collection A119018IM02 Wire Rope 1/8 in Grade 316

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A119018IM02 is a 1/8-inch diameter stainless steel wire rope constructed in a 1x19 single-strand configuration using Grade 316 stainless steel. This single-strand rope delivers a breaking strength of 1,780 pounds, making it suited for static rigging, standing rigging, and tensioning applications where corrosion resistance is a priority. Grade 316 stainless steel provides elevated resistance to chlorides and marine environments compared to Grade 304. The rope is sold and priced in 1-foot increments from a 500-foot coil, with a minimum order quantity of 50 feet. Trade professionals specify this type of wire rope for marine, architectural, and industrial installations.

This wire rope is appropriate for marine rigging, architectural cable railing systems, guy wire applications, and similar static or low-cycle tensioning uses where a small-diameter, high-strength corrosion-resistant cable is required. The 1x19 strand construction offers minimal flexibility but maximum strength and rigidity along the cable axis, which is the correct choice for standing rigging and straight runs rather than running rigging or sheave applications. It is commonly installed by riggers, marine technicians, and contractors working on cable rail systems in both residential and commercial settings.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/8-inch cable fittings, swage terminals, and tensioning hardware compatible with 1x19 single-strand wire rope in Grade 316 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger or contractor familiar with wire rope termination methods. Always use fittings and swage terminals rated for 1/8-inch 1x19 wire rope and verify that the termination method is appropriate for the intended load. Inspect cut ends for fraying before swaging or threading through fittings, and use proper wire rope cutters to maintain a clean end. Follow applicable building codes or rigging standards for the specific application.
