Value Collection WS-MH-WIRE-015 Aircraft Cable 1/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-WIRE-015 is a galvanized aircraft cable constructed with a 7 x 7 strand core configuration, delivering a rated breaking strength of 480 pounds. At 1/16 inch in diameter, this cable is suited for light-duty rigging, tensioning, and mechanical linkage applications across trade and industrial settings. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in environments with moisture exposure. Electricians, HVAC technicians, riggers, and general contractors install this type of cable for control runs, safety restraints, and support wire applications where a small-diameter, high-strength flexible line is required.

This aircraft cable is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications including HVAC equipment restraint, electrical conduit support, overhead safety cables, and general mechanical rigging. The 7 x 7 strand construction offers a balance of flexibility and tensile strength, making it well suited for runs requiring bends or routing through tight pathways. It is sold individually and is compatible with standard 1/16 inch cable fittings, ferrules, and clamps.

Key Features

• 480-pound breaking strength for reliable light-duty rigging and tensioning
• 7 x 7 strand core construction provides flexibility for routed installations
• Galvanized finish resists corrosion in damp or outdoor-adjacent environments
• 1/16 inch diameter fits standard small-bore cable hardware and fittings
• Compact and lightweight at 0.37 pounds per package

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/16 inch cable fittings, ferrules, swage sleeves, and wire rope clamps commonly used in light rigging and support wire applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with rigging hardware and applicable load ratings. Always de-energize adjacent electrical equipment and relieve any mechanical tension before removing or replacing existing cable runs. Use appropriately rated ferrules or swage fittings and a proper crimping tool — do not use knots as a substitute for mechanical terminations on load-bearing runs. Verify that the installed assembly does not exceed the rated breaking strength under anticipated working loads.
