1/2″ 1×7 Guy Wire for Towers

This 1/2″ 1×7 guy wire is engineered for high-strength bracing and support applications where minimal stretch and maximum stability are essential. Manufactured from Extra High Strength (EHS) galvanized steel, this guy strand is commonly used to support communication towers, antennas, utility structures, and other free-standing installations exposed to outdoor conditions.

1/2″ Galvanized 1×7 Guy Wire for Tower Support & Structural Bracing

Designed for dependable performance in demanding environments, this 1×7 guy wire delivers exceptional tensile strength with very limited flexibility and elongation under load. The seven-wire construction makes it the stiffest guy strand configuration available, while the galvanized finish helps protect against corrosion and weather exposure. Manufactured from EHS-grade steel, this cable provides approximately 40% greater tensile strength than standard HS-grade strand and meets ASTM A475 requirements for guying applications.

Key Features

• EHS Steel Construction: Extra High Strength steel provides superior tensile strength and enhanced break strength.
• 1×7 Strand Configuration: Delivers maximum stiffness and minimal stretch for structural support applications.
• Galvanized Finish: Helps resist corrosion and environmental wear in outdoor installations.
• ASTM A475 Compliant: Manufactured to meet industry standards for galvanized steel guy strand.

Common Applications

• Telecommunication tower guying
• Antenna support systems
• Utility pole stabilization

Wire Rope by the Foot Ordering FAQ

Will my 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?
