Measuring 3\/8 inch (9.5 mm) in diameter and 75 feet (22.9 m) long, the cable uses a 7-strand construction (six wires wrapped around a central core) and is hot-dip galvanized to resist rust and abrasion. Matched with a powder-coated, self-locking swivel hook, the assembly is designed to work with medium- to large-capacity electric winches and provide a durable, low-maintenance alternative to synthetic rope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat capacity and vehicles is this winch cable suitable for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cable has a 15,200 lb (67.6 kN) breaking strength and a recommended safe working load of up to approximately 5,033 lbs (22.4 kN).
