Custom Cable Assembly Design Options

When thinking about wire rope cable assemblies and custom steel cables, there are a number of options to consider:

• Cable Material: galvanized steel or stainless steel cables
• Cable Construction: typically these assemblies are made of 7 x 19 (most flexible), 7 x 7, or 1 x 19 (least flexible) cables
• Cable Coating: No coating, Nylon, Vinyl (PVC), or Pebax; black, white, and clear coatings are the most popular, but just about any color can be chosen
