The cable was as advertised and performed as expected. Time will tell as to its ability to withstand the elements, but in a freshwater application there was no need to upgrade to 316 SS and I expect the 18-8, 304 SS to work well.
As expected - high quality - good price on this SS cable. Will use to secure lower section of Hog fence to prevent wildlife from going under fence. Remember to order the slip end terminations for securing cable to posts.
