The write up for this steel cable says it is 4 oz. Isn't that a bit light for 30 ft of cable? Is it really that light?

No. It is quite heavy. In fact, I would say it is almost overkill. It's plastic coated wire cable, probably 3/8 diam (without the coating). I don't have it with me so I can't measure it, but it is stout.

This information is straight from Kryptonite's website: Product weight: 4.05 lbs (1.84 kgs)

This is a tough cable. I use mine to secure my $10,000.00+ Motorcycle to lamp posts and other such immovable objects away from home. No way can 2-3 drunks lift my Bike up and into the back of a pick-up without a "Torch" to cut the cable. You'd never be able to break it. A Bolt -Cutter would just flatten the cable, not cut it. A+++ Item.

Nope, it sure isn't. I have bought numerous of these. I'd say it's closer to 4-5 lbs. They work great tho!

Well I didn't measure it but it is around 38 feet used as a single cable. I use the double cable to slow the rate of lift as it was too fast to control as a single cable.

Thanks for your question. This is a single 30' spool of the cable in the photograph. It is wonderful sounding cable.

I have the steel cable and use it mostly for lifting my warn plow. I always use leather gloves when handling the cable. no problems.

It says the shipping weight is 7.3 ounces. I will say that it is extremely light weight and if I needed it I would have kept it because it worked flawlessly.

It isn't light. I would say it weighs that amount. It is big, and is perfect for what I wanted it for. I actually use two combination locks on it for security...and don't worry about using the key lock.. you could probably punch that out in no time.

Product description says 7 oz. You should be able to convert it yourself. I own two sets and consider them too light to matter. If you need the weight of each component, then I hope another OC reviewer would be better able to assist you.

Good question. They could be a pound apiece, 4ozs sounds too light. They are solid, heavy metal and have held up well for me. I am no shrinking violet. I push 310 and ride quite a bit.

I am sorry my friend. I am not an expert on this stuff. I would not call what I have "Perfect FLex". It is very heavy duty cable and I am happy with the signal. That is what I was after.

The paddle wire I'd received seemed to be 22 gauge; I ordered only one, however. It may be the case that when you ordered more than one, you revealed a problem the merchant was unaware of -- mispackaged product. 22 gauge is ever and always 22 gauge, it's a standard measurement; if you've got variations in wire thickness, then do send it back with a well-justified complaint, as you've simply NOT received what you'd paid for. Thanks for the question, this is how we the people keep quality up! :)

Just received a pack of these and the outside of the box says 30 AWG. Seems cheap to me--am wondering if I should find something else.

The Six Foot Cable I ordered was only four feet in length. Another reviewer ordered it and said the one they got was the length of a pencil! Guess I was lucky. Apparently there is no way to tell what your are going to get, when you order from these folks.

With the packaging it might way near 2 pounds but the gauge itself is light.It worked fine for me in cold weather. My mechanic uses them.

I don't what is being considered a lightening cable. It came with two cables for an ipad2, 30 pin. I use my cable on it for my iphone5s.

Double Cable. I have mine doubled but I am only lifting about 400 pounds. Hoist handles it fine but I don't think I would try and push 800 pounds to test it.
