    Semi-Flexible Coated Wire Rope

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Rope. Semi-Flexible Coated Wire Rope.
    Support utility poles, scaffolding, and masts without damaging nearby surfaces. Formed with fewer and thicker wires than other options, this rope resists bending to keep fixtures upright and stable under tension. The plastic coating protects the inner wires and keeps them from scratching nearby objects. All rope is manufactured in the U.S.
    Warning: Not for overhead lifting.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—With solid stainless steel construction, this wire rope has no plating that could wear away. It resists rust, but it won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
    Nylon Coating—Resists abrasion better than other coatings. It also stands up to mild chemicals, but will swell if exposed to moisture.
    Wire Rope Construction—Strand core rope is crush and impact-resistant.

    1 × 7 Strand Core

    Support utility poles, scaffolding, and masts with our most rigid wire rope. Formed with fewer and thicker wires than other rope, it won't bend easily, keeping fixtures upright and stable under tension.
    Warning: Not for overhead lifting.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—With solid stainless steel construction, this wire rope has no plating that could wear away. It resists rust, but it won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
    Wire Rope Construction—Strand core rope is crush and impact-resistant.
    Preformed—With each wire shaped into a spiral before being twisted onto the rope, they maintain their shape when cut. This keeps them from unraveling or poking equipment and users.
