How many pounds will a 1 foot length of this wire support? Thank you.

I have some art at 35x50 inch paper... Matt, frame and simile strength glass and this works fine. I usualy go wiyh hanging each side rather than across with larger art

It's rated for 60 lbs, but knots (such as the ones you'll tie to the hanging hardware) reduce the breaking strnegth of a rope or line by 50%, so effectively it can hang a 30 lb picture.

I really can't say definitely, but in comparison to electrical wire, I would say about 12 guage. The wire is firmer and stiffer and strong enough to hold our 55 lb puppy. He's outgrown it now but it's perfect for our 30 lb new rescue.

90" of steel strand cable is included. Doesn't say maximum weight but it appears that it is very strong. We are pleased but only used on a 3x3 pressure treated gate.

Way more than strong enough. The problem I had was that they shorted me something like 8 inches so I couldn't use it for my application. Keep in mind that it will stretch when stressed. I used it to pull 250 lbs and at 25 feet it stretched several inches. For a couple of feet and with multiple strands stretching won't be an issue.

Mine in running two 12g wires to it i wouldn't rec anything larger. Smallest size i have running to it is 22g

I can't say officially, but the metal is not too thin. I'd guess as much as a 12 AWG wire could handle would be fine. They're cheap enough you can just test one to failure and report your results.

This may be a little light for your use. I would use a heavier gauge wire. (10 or 15 gauge).

I don't know the exact weight but I am supporting a 12" Peavey. If supporting a speaker made for a stand like this I would guess less than 75lbs.

Proper wire size is determined by the load (Amps) and length of wire needed. Search for "12v wire sizing chart" to see a breakdown. I use 16 gauge wire which will carry up to 5 Amps 15 feet with about 3% voltage drop.

The hard wire is 6 feet in length. But you will want to leave a small bit of slack.

Pretty tough to answer this question. I have to respond with how much weight do you need to support? 3 feet of hanging space can add up to a lot of weight. 3 ft = 36 inches. Every stud is spaced no more than 16 inches. Sometimes less when approaching corners. You should be able to find two studs.

Yes, it will works. I used .110" dia. wire and the anchor support it no problem. The anchor can support from 8-12 gauge wire which is .080" to .0125".

Hi, I have used 4 five foot extensions (total 20') a number of times with no problems. The weight load was always moderate and I substituted bolts and wing-nuts for the connectors.

It should easily support that weight given it requires 4 sq inches of tape for each pound of weight. I would buy the tape in a larger volume/quantity to reduce cost.

It is set up for hard wire installation into a box, and requires a box behind to stabilize the weight. I would not advise buying this for the application you are describing but perhaps you should consult with a licensed electrician to see if he or she could attach a plug and figure out how to stablize the fixture on the wall.

I use mine for a wireless router. I think it will handle some more weight, but the drywall anchors that come with it are garbage. The hole was too big for the anchor to expand with the provided screws. A quick trip to Lowes for some better anchors fixed that issue.

I used to double sticky tape to attach mine. It weighs next to nothing. The only challenge is the cord...it's very short, so you will have to run an extension across your ceiling unless you have an outlet up there.
