While not all wire rope is used for lifting, it is still worth noting the load limit that is associated with any product that is being considered. In the case of this 5mm 6x19 rope, a capacity of over 1.5 tonnes is provided.
Of course this type of rope may be destined for other uses. Its galvanised surface stops rust from forming when moist atmospheres are encountered. This means it will not corrode outdoors, nor stop looking its best if a bit of salt water comes into contact with it.
From fencing and balustrades to garage door cabling, a thin yet strong rope like this can do much more than you might imagine.

Snapping up some 6x19 rope from RSD gives you the opportunity to include a lot more than the rope alone as part of your order. We manufacture and sell bespoke assemblies using ropes of all sizes and types. If you simply require a few fittings to add, this is also easily done when you get in touch. The team of RSD riggers are capable of adding eyes for easy anchoring. These may be either soft eyes or thimble eyes. Swaged terminals and turnbuckles can also be added, or you may just need the end fuse and tapered.
