DIY Backyard/Basement Batting Cage Cable Kit for Concrete

Skip callbacks, mid-season cable sag, and rust failures with this professional batting cage installation hardware kit. Built for contractors and facility managers, it pairs a 500 ft spool of T316 stainless wire rope with a full tensioning hardware set - giving you everything needed to suspend multi-lane hitting tunnels and backstops in one purchase.

FEATURES

• Corrosion-Proof T316 Steel: High-nickel T316 stainless alloy resists rust in coastal outdoor locations or humid indoor facilities.
• Flexible 7x19 Construction: 7x19 construction (7 strands x 19 wires, 133 individual wires) delivers a breaking strength of 2,279 lbs while remaining flexible enough to thread through pulleys without unraveling or kinking.
• No Extra Store Runs: Includes concrete wall hooks, turnbuckle hooks and eyes, and carabiners to build complete multi-point grid setups.
• Smooth Rope Performance: Burr-free finish protects hands during installation and lets the wire rope slide cleanly over pulley sheaves.
• Field-Proven Applications: Ideal for baseball batting cages, backstop netting, garden fencing, shade sails, and general sports barrier rigging.
