Perks & pitfalls of 16mm 6x24 Galvanized Wire Rope
The maximum load limit that this 16mm
rope provides is 14,321kg. It also packs a 140.5kN breaking force rating, although it is susceptible to crushing
because it uses a fibre core as opposed to a steel wire core.
Where this rope shines in comparison with its galvanised rope rivals is
in terms of its flexibility. The fibre core lets the outer steel wires bend and flex without breaking, allowing
you to secure loads in place in a number of settings.
Galvanisation prevents corrosion forming on the rope
and will let you use it for longer before it needs to be replaced. Maritime users and forestry operators will
find much to like about its weather resistant properties.
