Cable is a strong, lightweight alternative to chain for tensioning, bracing, and hanging, and this group covers galvanized cable in 1/8", 3/16", and 1/4" diameters. The galvanized finish resists corrosion indoors and out, and the flexible construction bends around corners and pulleys without kinking. A 5-to-1 design factor builds in a margin of safety on the working load, and the cable is easy to cut to length with a cable cutter or bolt cutter. Choose the diameter for the job, then pair the cable with wire rope clips of the same size and a turnbuckle to build a complete tensioned assembly.
