OUR WIRE ROPES GALVANISED & STAINLESS

We have galvanised wire rope with a fibre core (FC) and an independent wire rope core (IWRC). The FC is versatile and suitable for use on winches, slings, lifting and mooring, where the IWRC is perfect for heavier load bearing applications, including cyclic loading and fatigue heavy environments. Our stainless-steel wire rope has high strength-to-weight ratio, is resistant to stretching under tension and can withstand heavy loads. It’s suitable for yacht rigging, balustrades, guy wires and more.
