This compacted wire rope construction is available in both galvanised and ungalvanised finish with either ordinary or langs lay. The construction family includes 32X7, 35X7 and 37X7. Depending upon your requirement for higher breaking load or better wear characteristics, these wire ropes are available in different finishes and lubrications as well as being available with plastic impregnated or in compacted constructions.

The 6X19 & 6X36 classification of wire ropes is good for fatigue resistance and to withstand abrasion or crushing on the drum.

The 7x7x7 Cablaid Wire Rope is galvanized and preformed – good general purpose construction for strength and flexibility. Can be used over pulleys. TO BE USED FOR MECHANICALLY SWAGED SLINGS ONLY. Do not use for hand-spliced assemblies or for general purpose operating rope.

Applications include:

  • Offshore crane rope
  • Deck crane rope
  • Pillar crane rope
  • Whip hoist rope
  • Main hoist rope
  • Crane rope

6×26 IWRC Impact Swaged

These ropes offer greater strength than standard ropes of the same diameter while providing greater resistance to drum crushing, scrubbing and similar wear. When producing our 6×26 Swaged rope, we utilize a rotary swaging process to produce a compact cross-section with minimum voids and greater surface area on outer wires.
