Stainless Steel or Galvanized Steel Cable?

Stainless steel is very corrosion resistant and works well in tough environments such as salt air, water saturation, or agricultural chemicals. Galvanized carbon steel and stainless cables are soaked in a Mil spec rust preventative and lubricating compound. In normal environments the galvanized cable will not suffer from corrosion damage for decades. The advantages of galvanized cable are its wear resistance and cost. It will resist abrasion wear four or five times longer than stainless steel as stainless steel wire is high in nickel and much softer than the carbon steel wire. Stainless steel cable will show signs of wire wear at pulleys and fairleads much quicker than the galvanized carbon steel wire and stainless steel cable costs about 30% more than galvanized carbon steel cable. We recommend using galvanized steel cables except in coastal geographical areas, agricultural aircraft, float planes, and other applications where the cable is exposed directly to water.
