Wire Ropes

Wire ropes are an essential component in a variety of industries, particularly in winching systems, popular due to their strength, durability, and resistance to ever-changing weather conditions.

Typically engineered from high-tensile steel strands twisted together, wire ropes are designed to handle extremely heavy loads, while maintaining flexibility and resilience.

In winches, wire ropes are commonly used for lifting, pulling, and securing applications. Their high tensile strength makes them ideal for demanding tasks such as hoisting equipment, towing vehicles, and moving heavy materials. Unlike their synthetic counterparts, wire ropes offer superior abrasion resistance, which is critical in rugged conditions.

To maximise performance and safety of your wire ropes, we recommend that you inspect them regularly for wear and tear, lubricate properly, and never exceed their load capacity. With correct maintenance, wire ropes can provide long-lasting, reliable service during your winching operations.
