    Coated Wire Rope

    Image of Product. 7 × 7 Strand Core. Front orientation. Wire Rope. Coated Wire Rope, 7 × 7 Strand Core Wire Rope.

    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.
    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.
    FEP Coating—Our most chemical-resistant coating stands up to the harshest acids and bases.
    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 Low-Stretch Coated Wire Rope

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Rope. Extra-Flexible Low-Stretch Coated Wire Rope.
    A flexible option that maintains precise tension. This wire rope is stretched out during manufacturing so it won't elongate further under load. It also has more than twice as many individual wires as standard options to bend easily around winches and drums. Use it around small pulleys and in cable-driven systems where extra stretch could affect how they move. The plastic coating protects the inner wires and keeps them from scratching nearby objects.
    Warning: Not for overhead lifting.
    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.
    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 core rope is crush and impact-resistant.

    Oversized Hardened Multipurpose M2 High-Speed Tool Steel Rods

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Steel. Oversized Hardened Multipurpose M2 High-Speed Tool Steel Rods.
    Also known as reamer blanks, these rods have an oversized diameter that allows for finishing to your exact requirements. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.

    Low-Stretch Coated Wire Rope

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Rope. Low-Stretch Coated Wire Rope.
    This wire rope won't stretch out under load. Stretched during manufacturing, it maintains a precise, consistent amount of tension without elongating during use. Use it in cable-driven systems to avoid extra stretch that could affect how they move. The plastic coating protects the inner wires and keeps them from scratching nearby objects.
    Warning: Not for overhead lifting.
