5/16" Galvanized Wire Rope Winch Line - 9800 lbs Breaking Strength

Our 5/16" galvanized wire rope winch line is a durable and reliable option for a wide range of winching applications. Often referred to as galvanized aircraft cable (GAC), this 7x19 construction wire rope is commonly used in the rigging industry and frequently found on winches, offering a balance of strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. While it shares similarities with military-spec aircraft cable, it is not mil-spec or aircraft-rated. With an average breaking strength of 9,800 lbs, this winch line is trusted for industrial, utility, and recovery applications.
