6 x 19 and 6 x 37 Wire Rope Classification
The 6 x 19 WIRE ROPE CLASSIFICATION includes wire ropes with 6 strands of having wire combinations from 15 through 26 wires but not more than 12 outer wires in each strand. These ropes are known as Standard Hoisting Ropes and are made for a greater variety of uses than any other ropes.

The 6 x 37 WIRE ROPE CLASSIFICATION includes ropes with 6 strands having wire combinations from 27 to 49 inclusive wires per strand including filler wires. These ropes are generally known as "Special Flexible Hoisting Rope."

Galvanized & Stainless - Small Cord
7 x 7 Flexible
PREformed Galvanized and Stainless

7 x 7 (Flexible) small cord has seven strands of seven wires each. Its greater number of wires which are smaller in size make it much more flexible than 1 x 19, but not as flexible as 7 x 19. It has the least metallic area and therefore is not as strong as 1 x 19 and 7 x 19.

7 x 19 Flexible
PREformed Galvanized and Stainless

7 x 19 (Flexible) small cord has seven strands of 19 wires each. It is stronger than the 7 x 7 construction and not as strong as the 1 x 19, but is the most flexible. Because of its fine wires, the best service is obtained with 7 x 19 where abrasion is not too severe. These fine wires make it the most flexible to withstand severe bending.

Plastic Coated Wire Rope (Cable)

PLASTIC COATED WIRE ROPE is a PREformed Galvanized or Stainless Steel Cable usually having a coating of polyvinychloride (PVC) or Nylon. Other plastics such as polyurethane or polypropylene can be supplied to meet special needs. Plastic coatings greatly increases the flexural properties and fatigue life of the wire rope. CLEAR PVC COATED CABLE.

Nylon Coated Wire Rope (Cable)

NYLON COATED WIRE ROPE is tougher, giving greater impact resistance. It has more abrasive and cutting resistance than the PVC coated rope. Nylon coated cable has a wider operating temperature range (higher and lower) than any other plastic coated rope presently manufactured. It is more suited to operating on drums, around pulleys, and thru guides than the other plastics referred to above. However, it does not have the high degree of resistance to abrasion and crushing as does uncoated rope. CLEAR NYLON COATED CABLE.

RR-W 410D & MIL DTL-83420K AND OTHER SIZES & TYPES AVAILABLE

19 X 19 Compacted (Die-Drawn Strand) Wire Rope
Rotation Resistant
(Smaller diameters can be made in 19 X 7 construction.)

Compacted rotation resistant wire ropes (die drawn strand) are multi-layered constructions which produce superior strengths while delivering greater fatigue life and increased resistance to abrasion and drum crushing.

These ropes, with their flattened outer wires have proven successful on every type of equipment from long lifts to small hydraulic boom cranes.

These ropes are the first choice for applications where rotation resistance in single-part or multi-part lines is desired.

NOTE:

  • AVOID USING SWIVELS.
  • STRENGTHS LISTED APPLY ONLY IF BOTH ENDS ARE FIXED.
  • STRENGTHS WILL BE REDUCED IF ONE END IS FREE TO ROTATE.

THE HI-STRENGTH, MULTI-PART, ROTATION RESISTANT ROPE.


6 x 26 Compacted (Die-Drawn Strand) Wire Rope
An extra tough rope with greater strength than 6 x 25 extra improved plow steel and improved fatigue resistance.

The die drawn outer strand surfaces reduce interstrand notching and the compacted nature of the rope resists drum crushing.


PFV® Wire Rope
General purpose rope that delivers extra-long service life

Plastic Filled Valleys reduce wire contact stress
PFV Wire Rope provides load transfer and sharing between wires and strands unequaled by conventional wire rope. This promotes continued flexibility, and reduces interstrand nicking.

Check these features that make PFV wire rope wear resistant

Plastic Filled Valleys reduce internal corrosion
PFV Wire Rope's plastic impregnation acts as a shield to prevent infiltration of solid abrasives, which could cause internal deterioration.

Plastic Filled Valleys keep lubrication inside wire rope
Macwhyte Plastic Filled Valley wire rope locks in lubrication to insure greater flexibility, increased endurance, and improved wire-rope life. 		Plastic Filled Valleys provide greater wear area
Compared to ordinary wire rope. PFV Wire Rope assures smoother wearing surfaces. Adapts to grooves and close tolerances. Minimizes bend stress over sheaves. And increases fatigue life.
