Using a caliper to measure, this cable was .26" and therefore exceeded the quality of other cable suppliers that claim to sell 1/4" line, when in fact they sell .21". When you buy from ZIPLINEGEAR you know that you are getting measurable quality, literally. (I initially bought a cable from a different seller and promptly returned it. The other cable measured .21" and the pre installed single loop was stetchy.)
