Lets say i got this wire and hung 500 pounds off of it would it hold?

I'm not a mechanical engineer, but based on the specifications given in the description, I would say it depends. According to the description: Tensile strength - 303-333 ksi (min. - max.) Tensile Strength Max 335000 PSI Outside Diameter 0.051 inches So, the two tensile strengths are in slight disagreement. If you go with the lower value for safety, then it supports 303ksi (which I'm assuming means kilopounds/square inch). With a diameter of .051 inches, that works out to a cross section of: pi * diameter = 3.14 * .051 = .16 square inches Assuming tensile strength scales linearly with the cross section (it probably doesn't), then the total amount the wire should be able to support before failing is roughly: .016 square inches * 303 kilopounds/square inch = 48 kilopounds Which is far more than necessary to support 500lbs. The "depends" part comes from the fact that I'm not an engineer, and don't fully understand the forces at work. Be careful, and don't use it for anything safety-critical unless you get a real engineer to evaluate it!

I doubt it would hold that much weight. Don't remember the total weight but i believe it is listed on the spec's.

The 550 cord is rated for 550LB. I'm sure your going to use more than one strand of cord. I would say it would hold 400LB. I used it to pull a car with it was the only thing I had in my truck we had to wrap it around the shackle to the ball hitch 10 times. pulled the car 8 miles home.

Its description said that it can hold up to 1000 lbs, I did not test it as that weight, but it does hold around 500 lbs.

I am not exactly sure, but I am very confident with the right hooks it would hold at least 450lbs

Yes they will hold upto 200lbs per hang ring (total 400lbs) per set from what I have read. I have them supporting a trapeze bar from the ceiling.

I would say yes. On the description page it says the large hook will hold up to 5 lbs. I hang a large bath sheet on mine and I haven't had any problem.

Yes. Mine was 18 or 20 gage solid wire. I was told stranded wire will not work because it carries a radio transmission. I have it around 5 acres and it works perfect.

Way more than strong enough. The problem I had was that they shorted me something like 8 inches so I couldn't use it for my application. Keep in mind that it will stretch when stressed. I used it to pull 250 lbs and at 25 feet it stretched several inches. For a couple of feet and with multiple strands stretching won't be an issue.

Has long as you have it properly anchored to the wall it should support up to 75 pounds. It's the hangars that you hang accessories that has to be heavy enough to hold heavy objects.

You would have to ask the manufacturer for the tensile strength, but besides using it for grapevines, I used to use it for various construction purposes. I believe 200 pounds is not a stretch of the strength of the wire. I also used it for support to espalier apple trees. It is rust resistant, but for indoor use that should not be a factor.

I have 500' of 100lb Dacron on my reel. Yes, it 'could' hold probably another 100-150', but I wouldn't want it that full. I prefer to have an open edge on the spool.

Yes,certainly. Refer to the UL rating. In fact i tested it by hanging on it and i weigh 175 lbs. So for a static load, it is good for almost 2.5 times more than its rated capacity.

Yes, I believe. I put the pieces in a small container so I tossed the packaging. The larger hooks and wire can hold 100lb.

Think of it like a hollow-wall anchor that might hold a picture hook. Not so much weight, but when properly installed can certainly accomodate wiring and/or "wall wart" style plugs if you're running electrical.

Max i put is 300lbs it held... i think it says max is 500lbs but i honestly wouldnt put more than 405 on that...

the piece of holds very well. I believe if applied correctly, it will withstand about a pound of weight.
