Value Collection WS-MH-WIRE-130 Aircraft Cable 1/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-WIRE-130 is a galvanized, vinyl-coated aircraft cable designed for rigging, tensioning, and general-purpose mechanical applications. The cable features a 7 x 7 strand core construction, giving it flexibility and fatigue resistance suited for installations involving bends, pulleys, or cable guides. It carries a rated breaking strength of 920 pounds and is sold in 1-foot increments from a 1,000-foot coil, making it practical for projects requiring precise cut lengths. A vinyl coating over the galvanized wire provides added corrosion protection and a smooth outer surface. Licensed contractors, riggers, and maintenance professionals working in construction, HVAC hanging applications, or mechanical systems will find this cable a reliable utility option.

This aircraft cable is suited for residential and commercial mechanical applications where a flexible, corrosion-resistant wire rope is required. Typical uses include equipment hanging, safety restraint lines, tensioning systems, and general rigging where a 3/32-inch bare diameter with a 1/8-inch overall coated diameter is specified. The 7 x 7 strand core makes it a better fit for applications involving repeated motion or directional changes compared to stiffer 1 x 19 or 7 x 19 constructions. It is commonly selected by HVAC technicians for equipment suspension, by electricians for support wire, and by general contractors for a range of light-to-medium rigging tasks.

Key Features

• 920-pound rated breaking strength for reliable load-bearing performance
• 7 x 7 strand core construction provides flexibility and bend tolerance
• Galvanized steel core resists corrosion in exposed or humid environments
• Vinyl coating adds surface protection and a smooth outer finish
• 3/32-inch bare diameter with 1/8-inch overall coated outside diameter
• Sold in 1-foot increments with a minimum order of 100 feet from a 1,000-foot coil

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aircraft-style cable suitable for a wide range of rigging, hanging, and tensioning applications where a 1/8-inch vinyl-coated, 7 x 7 galvanized wire rope is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger, contractor, or licensed tradesperson familiar with wire rope handling and applicable load ratings. Always de-energize or isolate any mechanical system before attaching or adjusting cable runs. Use proper cable ferrules, swage fittings, or clamps rated for the wire diameter — do not substitute with undersized hardware. Refer to applicable ASME B30 or local mechanical codes for rigging safety requirements and load factor guidelines.
