Important figures for 12mm 6x12 Galvanized Wire Rope
As well as the 12mm diameter, there are
a few other things you need to know about how this 12mm 6x12 Galvanized Wire Rope will perform in order to work
out how suitable it is for your requirements.
First up is the load limit, which sits at 5,430kg for the mid-range 1770 steel example and reaches 6,013kg in its
1960 counterpart.
The lower breaking force factor that defines the entire 6x12 fibre core range. Along with the increased
susceptibility to crushing damage lifting is not recommended as a use for this 12mm rope. What can be achieved
is the effective restraint of cargo. Particularly in marine environments where the corrosion resistance makes a
big difference to the lifespan of the product.
