Review on ๐Ÿ“ธ Canomo 1/16 inch Stainless Steel Picture Hanging Wire Cable Kit - 98 Feet Vinyl Coated Rope with Aluminum Crimping Sleeves and Thimble - Perfect for Railing, Decking, and Picture Hanging by Bill Pulse

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sturdy and easy to handle

This review is for Canomo's 33' 1/16" Wire Rope Fence Kit. This is real 1/16" diameter wire with no plastic cover. The 98ft version on the same Revain list is a completely different vinyl covered product with D-ring tags and screws. I really wish Revain would stop lumping such disparate items together in one listing because it often confuses buyers (and reviewers). it works great. I cut the wire rope into pieces about 20 inches long and used wire end ferrules to create a small loop on one end and a large loop on the other end. The small loop is threaded through the hole in the rim of the trap before crimping, and the large loop is used to secure the trap in the field (with a stake). The result is a 'rope' attached to each trap that is both strong and highly flexible. The cable is easily cut with pliers and the sockets crimp well with a hand tool designed for crimping electrical connectors without soldering. It's not the perfect tool for crimping, but it works well enough. I don't know how strong the cable and bellows can be, but I can't break them with my bare hands. When I've used up my roll I'll almost certainly buy this item again. .
