Safety wire for overhead rigging
This 3.4ft stainless steel cable with a 5.0mm diameter supports 110lb loads. The PVC coating protects both the wire and the equipment it secures. It is built for photographers and videographers who suspend lights or cameras from grids or ceilings.
Locking D-ring holds under constant tension
The closure mechanism resists vibration and gradual loosening during long shoots. Stainless steel construction prevents corrosion when the wire remains in place for weeks. The 50kg rating applies to sustained static weight, not momentary shock loads.
Simple loop-and-lock install
Thread the wire through the anchor point, pass the tail through the D-ring, and snap the gate shut. No tools are required, but the gate spring can stiffen in cold studio conditions. Verify the latch is fully seated before loading. Buyers needing longer spans or higher working loads must source a different wire.

Questions about this item
Does the 5.0mm stainless steel cable generate any noise or heat when supporting a 110lb lighting fixture all day?
No, the passive steel cable produces no noise or heat; it simply bears the static load without any moving parts or power draw.
What mounting hardware must I already own to attach the locking D-ring closure to my overhead grid or C-stand?
You need a compatible carabiner, safety clip or bolt that accepts the D-ring; the wire itself supplies only the cable and integrated locking ring.
Will the 40in length and 5.0mm diameter work with the 1/4in and 3/8in spigots on my older Kupo grip heads?
The D-ring fits over standard spigot pins, so it connects to legacy grip heads without adapters; the 100cm reach suits typical studio distances.
