Every safe backyard zip line begins with an unyielding anchor. The CTSC 3/16" (5mm) Galvanized Steel Sling Cable is specifically engineered to wrap around anchor trees, poles, or structural posts to create a dependable, high-load starting anchor. Constructed from 7×19 strand galvanized aircraft-grade steel wire rope with a 3,700 lbs breaking strength, this heavy-duty sling cable features swaged, thimble-protected eye loops on both ends to connect directly to turnbuckles, carabiners, or cable clamps without line abrasion.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a sling cable used for?
A: A sling cable wraps around your starting tree trunk to create a rock-solid anchor point. Instead of wrapping your long main cable around the tree, the sling cable connects to your turnbuckle, making installation, tensioning, and takedown significantly easier.
Q: Should I choose the 8-foot or 11-foot sling cable?
A: For trees with a diameter under 20 inches (circumference under 60 inches), the 8-foot sling is ideal. For larger mature trees over 20 inches in diameter, choose the 11-foot version to ensure comfortable overlap for hardware connection.
Q: Do I need tree protection mats with this cable?
A: Yes! We always recommend placing CTSC tree protector mats between the cable and the tree bark to prevent friction damage and preserve the tree's health.
