Search by Material

302/304: Also known as 18-8 (18% chrome and 8% nickel nominal). This alloy is the most common of stainless. Steel alloys providing good corrosion resistance and strength comparable to galvanized carbon steel grades.

305: Slightly more corrosive resistant than 302. This alloy is largely non-magnetic perfectly suited for applications in aeronautical and naval fields.

316: Extra corrosion resistant. Used in high corrosive atmospheres such as the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean where salt spray is highly potent. Approximately 10% less strength than 302 Stainless Steel.

GALVANIZED: Zinc coated carbon steel offers some corrosion resistance. G1070 is the most common grade used in aircraft cable and wire rope. It remains ductile over long periods of working. Usually higher break strengths than stainless steels.

MONEL 400: Nickel-Copper alloy for specialty applications.

TIN over ZINC: Tin coated galvanized cable for flight control applications.

Search By Construction Type:

19X7 Aircraft Cable
Non Rotating Very Flexible
Used when a single line hoisting operation is necessary. Standard equipment on helicopter rescue winch applications.

1X19 Aircraft Cable
Non flexible
Widely used as standing rigging on sail boats. It is also well suited for push-pull, and guying applications.

1X7 Aircraft Cable
Non flexible
For straight load applications, in smaller diameters used as fishing leaders and line. In larger diameters it is used for guy wire and messenger strand applications

1x7 Aircraft Cable

3X3 Aircraft Cable
Flexible
Small diameter, flexible construction for specialized applications

3X7 Aircraft Cable
Flexible
A combination of three 1x7 strands. Very flexible in small diameters for aircraft control.

7X19 Aircraft Cable
Very Flexible
Used when flexibility and fatigue are concerns. Aircraft controls, running rigging on sailboats, exercise equipment, winches and garage doors are all common applications.

7X7 Aircraft Cable
Moderately Flexible
For use where extreme flexibility is not necessary. Commonly used in aircraft and automotive controls, it performs highly in a wide range of mechanical applications.
