The spindles on railings only have a 50lb side load requirement so even this no name will be fine from a structural point of view. I would be more concerned if it really is 316 and will rust. Of course it could be just fine. Seems to me when I looked at this system years ago, the real expense was the fittings. Harbor Freight does carry some now (same concerns).
This cable has "breaking strength" of 1430lbs, so it's safe working load is about 1/3 of that - which is roughly the weight of your stumps.
HOWEVER, you're going to lose a lot of that strength looping the cable over a pulley (the smaller the pulley, the more strength you lose), so I would say no - at least I wouldn't do it.
