3/8" Steel Wire Rope

3/8" steel wire rope is a versatile solution for lifting, rigging, towing, and general material handling applications. Used throughout the construction, marine, utility, and industrial sectors, this popular diameter delivers an excellent balance of strength, flexibility, and durability for medium to heavy-duty service.

Fasteners Plus offers 3/8" wire rope in a variety of constructions and finishes, available by the linear foot, half coil, or full coil to fit projects of any size. All of our 3/8" wire rope is manufactured to meet the dimensional and strength requirements of Federal Specification RR-W-410 and ASTM A1023. Our 3/8" EHS Guy Wire also meets ASTM A475 requirements for structural support applications.

3/8" Rotation-Resistant Wire Rope

When lifting free-hanging loads, reducing rope rotation helps improve safety and load control. Rotation-resistant wire rope is engineered with inner and outer strands laid in opposite directions to minimize torque generated during lifting. This construction is ideal for crane, hoist, and single-part lifting applications where stable load handling is essential.

Available Constructions & Finishes

3/8" wire rope is available in several materials and constructions to suit a wide variety of applications.

• Galvanized Wire Rope: Available in popular 6x19 and 6x37 constructions, galvanized wire rope provides dependable corrosion resistance for outdoor, agricultural, utility, and general industrial applications.
• Stainless Steel Wire Rope: Type 304 and Type 316 stainless steel options deliver superior corrosion resistance for marine, coastal, food processing, and chemical environments.
• Vinyl-Coated Wire Rope: A protective vinyl jacket helps reduce abrasion, improve handling, and shield the cable from moisture and everyday wear.
• Rotation-Resistant Wire Rope: Specialized constructions help minimize load spin during lifting operations that require greater control.
• EHS Guy Wire: Designed for permanent guying systems and structural support where high tensile strength and minimal stretch are required.
