Value Collection WS-MH-WIRE-053 Wire Rope 5/16 in 9800 Lb

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-WIRE-053 is a galvanized steel wire rope with a 5/16 inch diameter and a 7 x 19 strand core construction. It carries a breaking strength of 9,800 pounds, making it suitable for demanding lifting, rigging, and tensioning applications. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or outdoor environments. This wire rope is sized and rated for use by rigging crews, contractors, and trade professionals who require a reliable, load-rated cable in general construction, mechanical, or industrial service work.

This wire rope is commonly used in overhead lifting, guy wire applications, winch lines, and general rigging tasks across construction, industrial maintenance, and marine environments. The 7 x 19 strand configuration provides good flexibility relative to its diameter, making it well suited for applications involving sheaves, pulleys, or frequent bending. It is appropriate for both residential and commercial project work where a mid-range diameter galvanized cable is required.
