3/4″ 6×19 Wire Rope Cable | 304 Stainless

This 3/4″ 304 stainless steel wire rope features a versatile 6×19 construction that balances flexibility, abrasion resistance, and corrosion protection. Commonly used for lifting, suspension systems, winch lines, and general rigging applications, it provides dependable performance in environments where rust resistance is important but marine-grade stainless steel is not required.

Corrosion-Resistant 304 Stainless Wire Rope for Rigging & Hoisting Applications

Manufactured from Type 304 stainless steel, this wire rope offers greater corrosion resistance than galvanized wire rope while maintaining higher strength and a more economical price point than Type 316 stainless steel. The 6×19 class construction provides excellent abrasion resistance and durability, making it a reliable choice for applications that experience regular wear and contact with sheaves, drums, or pulleys.

6×19 Wire Rope Configuration

The class of this wire rope is 6×19. These numbers nominally refer to the construction of the rope, indicating six outer strands surrounding the core and approximately 15-26 wires within each strand. Compared to 6×37 wire rope, the 6×19 construction offers improved abrasion resistance but less flexibility and fatigue resistance.

The Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) provides additional support and structural stability compared to fiber core alternatives. IWRC construction offers improved crushing resistance and performs well in elevated temperature environments, with a general operating temperature range of -40F (-40C) to 400F (204C).

Key Features

• Type 304 stainless steel provides excellent corrosion resistance for most indoor and outdoor applications.
• 6×19 construction delivers a strong balance of abrasion resistance and flexibility.
• IWRC core improves load support, stability, and resistance to crushing.
• More corrosion-resistant than galvanized wire rope while maintaining greater strength than Type 316 stainless steel.
• Suitable for lifting, suspension, winching, and general-purpose rigging applications.
• Meets Federal Specification RR-W-410 and ASTM A1023 dimensional and strength requirements.
• Available by the foot for custom-length applications.

Installation Tips

• Use properly sized wire rope clips, fittings, and end terminations rated for stainless steel wire rope applications.
• Inspect wire rope regularly for broken wires, deformation, wear, or corrosion, especially in demanding environments.
• Follow all applicable industry standards and manufacturer recommendations for installation, handling, and maintenance.

Wire Rope by the Foot Ordering FAQ

Will my 304 stainless steel wire rope arrive as one continuous length?
Yes. The quantity you order will be supplied as one continuous, uncut length of wire rope. For example, if you order a quantity of 1,000, you will receive a single 1,000-foot length.

Can I order multiple separate lengths?
Yes. To receive multiple lengths, add each length to your cart as a separate line item. For example, if you need two 1,500-foot lengths, enter a quantity of 1,500 and add it to your cart twice. Each line item will be cut and supplied as a separate length.

Can I order lengths shorter than the minimum order quantity if the combined total exceeds the minimum?
Yes. If your combined order will exceed the minimum quantity requirement but you need shorter individual lengths, please call our team to place your order. One of our product experts will be happy to assist.

Accessories & More

Complete your wire rope assembly with compatible wire rope fittings and rigging hardware. We carry a variety of type 304 stainless steel accessories, including wire rope clips and wire rope thimbles, to help you create a secure and reliable assembly. For best results, use type 304 stainless steel components throughout your system, as mixing materials or finishes can lead to galvanic corrosion and reduced performance over time.
