6x7+FC 6x7+IWS 6x9W+FC 6x9W+IWR 6 Strands Steel Wire Rope

Steel Wire Ropes of construction 6x7, 6x9W are used as special purpose ropes.

These ropes, comparing with other rope structures, feature with high resistance to abrasion and very low flexibility (due to the fact that outer layer wire diameters are much larger than the ones in ropes of other structures).

Steel Wire Ropes of larger diameters are not adequate for operation with sheave blocks and small radius guides due to large rope stiffness.

For marine applications, they sometimes are used as trawl warps.

Also, they are used for ski lifts. Wire rope smallest diameters, from 1.8 up to 2.5 mm, are used in drop window mechanisms in cars.

EIPS = 1960Mpa (Extra Improved Plow Steel)

EEIPS= 2160Mpa

IPS=1870Mpa

PS=1770Mpa

FC = Fiber Core

IWRC = Independent Wire Rope Core

Applications:

1. Steel wire ropes with diameters from 8mm to 80mm, Diameter and strcuture depends on customers' requirements.

2. 4:1/5:1/6:1 safety factors

Environmental Considerations

IWRC must not be used at temperatures above 400°F.

FC must not be used at temperatures above 180°F.

Fiber core ropes should not be subjected to degreasing solvents

We can also provide Steel Wire Rope Slings

​HOW TO ORDER WIRE ROPE SLINGS

• Define rope diameter. 1-1/4" or 24mm in example
• Rope Structure. 6X37 IWRC EIPS construction for example.
• laid RHLL(Z) or LHLL(S) for cable laid rope.
• Sling Length (length could be 0.5~1000meter, feet and meter both OK)
• Terminations, end with soft eye or Hard eye (Thimble Eye)
