9/16″ 6×37 Wire Rope Cable | Galvanized
Made of strong Extra Improved Plowed grade steel (EIPS), this galvanized wire rope belongs to the 6×37 class, which is known for flexibility. Along with the 6×19 class, 6×37 wire rope is the perfect general-use steel cable and can be used for many applications, including as hoisting rope, suspension cables, winch lines, and more.
The 6×37 configuration offers higher flexibility and better fatigue-resistance (it can bend repeatedly without breaking) than the 6×19; however, it is less abrasion-resistant.
6×37 Wire Rope Configuration
Our wire rope is made using EIPS-grade cable.EIPS (Extra Improved Plow Steel) refers to the strength of the wire rope – its tensile strength is around 10% greater than an IPS grade, improving the break strength.
The class of this wire rope is 6×37. These numbers nominally refer to the construction of the wire rope – the number of outer strands around the core and an estimation of the number of wires within each of these outer strands. so for a 6×37 class, the number of outer strands is 6, and the number of wires making up each strand can range from 27-49. The construction of the rope you will be receiving is 6×36 – if you are looking for something different, please call.
The independent wire rope core (IWRC) provides more support than a fiber core – it’s more resistant to crushing and is better suited for high temperature applications. Their general temperature range is between -40°F / -40°C and 400°F / 204°C.
Hot Dip Drawn Galvanized Finish
Along with the superior corrosion-resistance compared to a bright wire rope, a hot dip drawn galvanized wire rope offers several other benefits that make it worth the investment.
The most important of these benefits is the strength – the standard galvanization process can weaken the rope by up to 10% of the break strength. The drawn galvanization process does not, so you’ll get the same strength as a comparable bright wire rope!
Drawn galvanized also enhances ductility – allowing it to perform better in critical applications – and corrosion-resistance- it won’t flake or crack like an electro-galvanized wire might.
