Where is this 10mm 6x12 Galvanized Wire Rope typically encountered?
The 6x12 alignment of wire strands
around fibre cores means that this rope is much less susceptible to fatigue-related damage. The downside is that
it can be crushed by heavy weights and snapped by modest forces, meaning it is important to avoid using it for
lifting duties.
Where this rope really shines is as a lashing product, especially in the shipping sector. Galvanization prevents
rust from forming on the surface and the flexible fibre beneath ensures it can easily anchor goods and equipment
in place, with a working load limit of 4,176kg giving you an idea of what its 10mm diameter is capable of
achieving.
