GALVANISED WIRE ROPE 7×7 (6×7 Wire Steel Core)

Description

Choose Marvisons' robust GALVANISED WIRE ROPE 7×7 (often referred to as 6×7 Wire Steel Core) for applications demanding high strength, minimal stretch, and reliable corrosion protection. This specialized steel wire rope is a fundamental component for static loads, rigging, and various engineering tasks where a more rigid and less flexible rope is preferred.

The 7x7 construction consists of 7 strands, each with 7 wires, giving it a solid and compact structure. While often simply referred to as 7x7, the "6x7 Wire Steel Core" notation emphasizes that one of the strands acts as a central wire strand core (WSC), providing excellent support and increasing the overall metallic cross-section. This design results in a rope with very low stretch and high breaking strength, making it ideal for fixed applications. The heavy galvanisation process applies a durable zinc coating, offering outstanding protection against rust and environmental degradation, making it perfect for outdoor and harsh conditions.

Key Features & Benefits:

• High Strength & Low Stretch: The compact 7x7 construction and all-steel composition (including the WSC) provide excellent breaking strength and minimal elongation under load.
• Superior Galvanisation: A robust zinc coating ensures outstanding corrosion resistance, protecting the wire rope from rust and wear in outdoor, marine, and humid environments.
• Ideal for Static Applications: Its inherent rigidity makes it perfect for fixed installations, tensioning, and applications where little to no movement is desired.
• Durable & Reliable: Manufactured to stringent industry standards, ensuring consistent high performance and extended longevity in tough operating environments.
• Good for Control Cables: Its compact and relatively stiff nature makes it suitable for various push-pull or control cable applications.

Ideal for:

• Guy Wires
• Standing Rigging
• Fencing Wire (heavy-duty)
• Tensioning Cables
• Control Cables (e.g., brakes, throttles)
• Security Cables
• Balustrades and Railings
• Architectural Applications
• General Industrial Fastening and Securing
