316 Stainless Wire Rope - 7 x 7 - 2.4mm - 305m Reel
Choose semi-flexible 316 stainless steel wire rope in a 305m reel for balustrading applications. This 7 x 7 construction is supplied in the 2.4mm (3/32 inch) diameter, giving you the exact construction and wire-size combination needed when matching fittings and planning a run.
The 7 x 7 construction provides a semi-flexible wire and is described for balustrading. It occupies a different place in the range from rigid 1 x 19 and more flexible 7 x 19 wire, so select the construction as well as the diameter.
Plan the complete run before dividing the reel
A reel allows multiple lengths to be prepared from the same construction and diameter. Prepare a cut list that includes the requirements of the selected terminations and adjustment fittings, then identify each run before cutting. Keeping the wire specification with that list makes later maintenance and matching purchases easier.
Check construction as carefully as diameter when replacing an existing run. The required flexibility is part of the selection, and end fittings must suit the actual wire and the method used to form the termination. Store the unused reel so the wire remains organised and protected from avoidable damage.
Selection details
This reel has a stated breaking strain of 417kg. Breaking strain is not a working-load limit and must not be treated as the allowable operating load of an assembled system. Terminals, connections and the installation itself also need to be appropriate for the job.
The 305m supply length is useful when planning multiple runs or a larger installation. Work out the required cut lengths and allowances before dividing the reel. Match all swage terminals, thimbles and other wire fittings to the actual imperial wire size and their specified termination method.
The grade is 316 stainless steel. Use the construction, diameter, reel length and breaking-strain specification together when comparing this product with another wire. A change in diameter or construction can change the listed strength, so select by the exact variant rather than by the stainless material alone.
