Stainless Steel cable is not as strong, probably why it is not recommended.


You can get cable made up for you at Wire Rope and Rigging place, most
Cities have one, because they supply the local Crane, winch industries.
Just Google search for "Wire Rope and Rigging" for you local place.

Hi all,

I will be replacing the cable on my Hygain 52ft crank-up soon, and if I 
remember correctly, isn't stainless steel cable NOT recommended?  Seems like

galvanized is the correct type.
Also, does anyone know of a source of cable that allows you to buy small 
amounts?   Google turns up a lot of sources, but I don't need 250 feet of 
it, and that is the shortest amount I've seen offered.

Thanks,
Buddy WB4M
