RS PRO Steel Wire Rope, 75m

The Wire Rope history reaches the 19th century, which means it is well-known and in everyday use by many professionals worldwide. The Metal Wire Rope consists of several strands of metal twisted together. When the strands are closed over a central core, we are in the discovery of producing a rope. It provides a sturdy means for lifting and lowering loads reliably and safely. Several different sizes of Wires offer support to users in terms of maximum corrosion protection and excellent resistance to abrasion. Wire Cables provide flexibility for many construction projects that are essential to run your business. We are proudly introducing our won branded RS PRO Metal PVC Covered Wire Rope with a safe working load up to 100 kg. The length of the Wire Rope is 75 metres, and it consists of six strands and seven wires. These wires and ropes are not suitable for general lifting use as the primary intention are to secure and support applications. For lifting slings and chains, see a range of Straps, Slings and Chains within this section. Our Metal Wires have their recognition in demanding conditions and conform to all RoHS compliant.

What is the difference between Cable and Wire Rope?

The general rule is that if the Wire Ropes diameters are more substantial then 3/8 inch (9.525 mm) the classification set it as a Wire Rope, but if it is lower than 3/8 inch we are dealing with a Cable or Cords.

What should I consider when selecting/buying Wire Rope?

1. Check the Strength parameters
2. Verify what the resistance is
3. What is the bendability
4. Determine the resistance to crushing and metal loss & deformation along with resistance to rotation and corrosion
