Wire rope like this is not assigned a Working Load Limit (WLL), but rather a published Breaking Strength. The end user is responsible for determining use and applying an appropriate safety factor, generally 5:1 or higher. As an example, if you apply a 5:1 safety factor, that would mean a 7,400 lbs WLL. Your application may or may not require a different safety factor.
