Value Collection WS-MH-WIRE-098 Aircraft Cable 1/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-WIRE-098 is a 1/8-inch diameter stainless steel aircraft cable rated at 1,760 pounds breaking strength. It uses a 7 x 19 strand core construction, which groups 19 individual wires into 7 bundles for a flexible, high-cycle bending profile. The stainless steel finish resists corrosion in wet, marine, and outdoor environments. This cable is a standard industrial and rigging supply item handled by electricians, riggers, maintenance mechanics, and general contractors working on tensioning, suspension, and structural bracing applications.

This aircraft cable is suited for a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial applications including cable railing systems, overhead safety barriers, equipment tie-downs, theatrical rigging, and fall-arrest support lines. The 7 x 19 strand configuration makes it a common choice when repeated flexing or routing around sheaves and pulleys is required. The 1/8-inch diameter fits standard swage fittings, ferrules, and cable clamps designed for that size range.

Key Features

• 1,760 pounds breaking strength for high-load tensioning and suspension tasks
• 7 x 19 strand core construction provides flexibility and resistance to fatigue from repeated bending
• Stainless steel finish delivers corrosion resistance in marine, outdoor, and high-humidity environments
• 1/8-inch diameter is compatible with standard swage fittings, ferrules, and cable clamps
• Package weight of 15.19 pounds suitable for bulk-quantity rigging projects

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/8-inch cable hardware including swage terminals, wire rope clips, ferrules, and thimbles commonly used in cable railing, rigging, and tensioning assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified riggers or mechanics familiar with wire rope and cable hardware standards. Always inspect cable ends and fittings for proper seating before applying load. Avoid sharp bends or kinking during routing, as this reduces effective breaking strength. Follow applicable ASME, OSHA, or local building code requirements for cable railing and overhead rigging applications.
