Wire Rope

3 × 7 Hollow Core

7 × 7 Strand Core

The most common wire rope for hanging fixtures, tethering equipment, and constructing barriers. It balances flexibility and abrasion resistance —you can bend it if needed, but it has fewer wires that could break over time, so it lasts longer.

Warning: Not for overhead lifting.

Galvanized Steel—The outer layer resists moisture but can wear down when exposed to salt water and chemicals.

18-8 Stainless Steel—With solid stainless steel construction, this wire rope has no plating that could wear away. It resists rust, but it won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.

Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

Wire Rope Construction—Strand cores are more crush and impact-resistant than hollow cores. However, you can run electrical wiring or fluid conduit through hollow core ropes.

Preformed—With each wire shaped into a spiral before being twisted onto the rope, they maintain their shape when cut. This keeps them from unraveling or poking equipment and users.

Extra-Flexible Wire Rope

6 × 19 Fiber Core

7 × 19 Strand Core

Wind this wire rope onto a winch or drum to pull and tow vehicles, trailers, and more. It contains more than twice as many individual wires as standard wire rope to bend easily without wear. All rope is manufactured in the U.S.

Warning: Not for overhead lifting.

Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause this wire rope to rust.

Galvanized Steel—The outer layer resists moisture but can wear down when exposed to salt water and chemicals.

Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

Wire Rope Construction—Strand cores are more crush and impact-resistant than fiber cores, but fiber core ropes bend more easily and absorb shock.

Preformed—With each wire shaped into a spiral before being twisted onto the rope, they maintain their shape when cut. This keeps them from unraveling or poking equipment and users.

Semi-Flexible Wire Rope

1 × 7 Strand Core

1 × 19 Strand Core

Support utility poles, scaffolding, and masts with our most rigid wire rope. Formed with fewer and thicker wires than other rope, it won't bend easily, keeping fixtures upright and stable under tension.

Warning: Not for overhead lifting.

Galvanized Steel—The outer layer resists moisture but can wear down when exposed to salt water and chemicals.

Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

Wire Rope Construction—Strand core rope is crush and impact-resistant.

Preformed—With each wire shaped into a spiral before being twisted onto the rope, they maintain their shape when cut. This keeps them from unraveling or poking equipment and users.

Rotation-Resistant Wire Rope for Lifting

19 × 7 Strand Core

This wire rope won't spin or twist loads in the air. The outer strands twist in the opposite direction of the inner strands to keep loads stable when lifted or suspended. They're often used to lift and lower elevators without any unwanted movement.

Warning: Never use wire rope to lift people or items over people.

Wire Rope Construction— Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) is the strongest wire rope construction, but strand core rope is a durable alternative for lighter-duty applications.

Preformed—With each wire shaped into a spiral before being twisted onto the rope, they maintain their shape when cut. This keeps them from unraveling or poking equipment and users.

Ultra-Flexible Wire Rope for Lifting

Our most flexible wire rope. It contains the most individual wires within it, so it can bend around a small radius repeatedly without wear. Loop it around small pulleys and sheaves to lift and suspend equipment and materials.

Warning: Never use wire rope to lift people or items over people.

Coated Wire Rope


3 × 7 Hollow Core	7 × 7 Strand Core

Hang fixtures and tether equipment without scratching hooks and other nearby objects. The plastic coating on this wire rope prevents abrasion while further protecting the inner wires from corrosion and damage. All rope is manufactured in the U.S.

Warning: Not for overhead lifting.

Nylon Coating—Resists abrasion better than other coatings. It also stands up to mild chemicals, but will swell if exposed to moisture.

Wire Rope Construction—Strand cores are more crush and impact-resistant than hollow cores. However, you can run electrical wiring or fluid conduit through hollow core ropes.

Preformed—With each wire shaped into a spiral before being twisted onto the rope, they maintain their shape when cut. This keeps them from unraveling or poking equipment and users.

Wire Rope Cutting Bands

Also known as seizing bands, these prevent fraying while cutting wire rope. Wrap the band around the wire rope and squeeze the flat end into the indented end. The cut should be made in the middle of the band.

Extra-Flexible Wire Rope for Lifting

6 × 19 IWRC

7 × 19 IWRC

Lift everything from heavy machinery to timber. With more than twice as many individual wires as standard wire rope, it bends easily without wear. Use it with cranes and hoists.

Warning: Never use wire rope to lift people or items over people.

Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause this wire rope to rust.

Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

Wire Rope Construction—Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) is the strongest wire rope construction.
