Sporting a WLL of up to 5 tonnes, this 11mm 6x12 galvanized wire rope is still best suited to load restraint rather than lifting. 11mm 6x12 Rope privileges flexibility above all else and is an excellent option for lashing larger items in place during transport.
The load limit mentioned in the introduction applies to the 1960 rated version of this wire rope. It is offered in a slightly less sturdy 1770 steel iteration that drops the WLL to 4,563kg.
Both examples offer the same corrosion resistance that comes as a result of the galvanization process. Whether rain water beads on its surface or sea spray drenches it, this rope should stay rust-free.
Fibre cores for each bundle of wires give its 6x12 configuration the aforementioned ability to flex without suffering fatigue damage. It works well as a towrope, as a means of securing bundles of wood and in other contexts where its lack of lifting strength is irrelevant.
