Description
Overview:
This galvanised wire rope is a 6 x 7 construction (six strands of seven wires), made from zinc‐coated steel for long‐lasting resistance to rust and weather. With a 6 mm diameter and supplied on a 30 m roll, it is a practical choice for general rigging, securing, and guiding tasks on construction sites and around gardens and small estates. The relatively low strand count gives it firm handling with low stretch, making it well suited to standing rigging, stays, and straight runs through pulleys or fairleads. Rated to a breaking strength of 21.2 kN, it provides dependable performance when installed with the correct fittings and safety factors. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 492 268.
