Strong                                      5,450 - 6,900

Standard                                   4,800 - 5,400

Deep Well                                 3,500 - 4,400

 

Note:    For cables that are not new, the breaking strain will be lower than the quoted values. Thus 50% of the new cable     breaking load is the maximum that may be pulled without consulting the Base.
