Description
Overview:
This galvanised wire rope is a durable, weather‐resistant cable for general construction, site, marine and garden use. Built in a 6 x 7 configuration (six strands of seven wires, 42 wires in total), it balances strength with enough flexibility for routing through pulleys and around gentle bends. With a 3mm diameter and supplied in a 30m roll, it suits tasks such as guying, fencing, bracing, barriers and light winching. The zinc‐galvanised steel finish offers strong protection against rust in outdoor environments. Rated to a 5.29 kN breaking strength, it provides dependable performance when correctly installed with matching fittings. Supplied under MPN 492 262, this is a practical choice for workshops, farms, landscaping, site services, and DIY projects needing a compact, robust wire solution.
