Value Collection WS-MH-WIRE-018 Aircraft Cable 1/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-WIRE-018 is a 1/16-inch diameter galvanized aircraft cable rated at 480 pounds breaking strength. It uses a 7 x 7 strand core construction, meaning seven strands are twisted into seven bundles for a balance of flexibility and tensile strength. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for both indoor and outdoor applications. This cable is commonly installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, rigging professionals, and maintenance tradespeople who need a reliable, small-diameter wire rope for light to medium duty tasks.

This aircraft cable is suited for a wide range of trade and industrial applications including HVAC equipment hanging, control cable runs, equipment safety restraints, conduit support, and general rigging tasks. The 1/16-inch diameter makes it appropriate for applications where a low-profile, flexible cable is needed without sacrificing rated load capacity. It is commonly used in both residential and light commercial settings where a 480-pound breaking strength meets the load requirement.

Key Features

• 480-pound breaking strength for reliable light to medium duty load handling
• 1/16-inch diameter for compact, low-profile routing and installations
• 7 x 7 strand core construction provides flexibility with consistent tensile performance
• Galvanized finish resists corrosion in indoor and outdoor environments
• Compact package size of approximately 5.91 x 3.54 x 3.54 inches for easy handling and storage

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aircraft cable suitable for rigging, support, and restraint applications where a 1/16-inch galvanized wire rope with 480-pound breaking strength is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson following applicable OSHA and local rigging or mechanical codes. Verify that the rated breaking strength meets or exceeds the required working load limit with the appropriate safety factor before use. Use proper ferrules, swage sleeves, or cable clamps rated for 1/16-inch diameter cable when terminating ends. Inspect cable ends and fittings for fraying or deformation before placing the assembly into service.
