6x36 Fibre core galvanized steel wire rope – The all-purpose cable 

The 6x36 fibre core galvanized steel wire rope is made up of 6 strands, with 36 wires per strand. This gives the wire rope a far greater fatigue resistance than 6x19 or 6x24 constructions.

6 x 36 fibre core rope is a high strength rope with consistent bending fatigue performance. It can be used for a wide range of applications such as general crane ropes, hoist ropes, winch ropes and other general engineering applications. The most popular diameters of 6 x 36 wire rope range from 8 mm to 36 mm and due to the ropes unique construction it maintains its flexibility at much wider diameters than other constructions. 6mm up to 52mm diameter 6x36 fibre core galvanized wire ropes are also available.

This steel cable has an equal lay construction with excellent breaking load qualities. The fibre rope core or centre of this rope is what gives it its flexibility and therefore suitability to particular applications. The 6x36 fibre core wire-rope is used in many types of operations that use:- W.R slings, crane ropes, hoist ropes, tow ropes, mooring ropes etc. This steel rope is available in diameters from 8mm-44mm in any length you require.

6x36 Wire Core Galvanized Rope

If you’re looking for a strong but flexible rope with a good fatigue life, you might want to consider our 6x36 wire core galvanized  rope.

6x36 Galvanized Steel Cable – a very versatile wire rope

Our 6x36 wire core galvanized rope is made up of 6 strands with 36 wires per strand. This greater number of strands per wire ensures the rope has an excellent fatigue resistance albeit with a slightly lower crush resistance. Due to its flexibility this rope has an incredibly varied range of uses. Typically used in the lifting, winching and crane industries. It can also be used for wire rope rigging applications.

The independent wire rope core provides the rope with more strength and durability than a 6 x 36 wire rope with fibre core. This in turn allows the rope to be flexible whilst still maintaining a high breaking strain. 6 x 36 ropes with a wire core are much less susceptible to crushing and this risk can be further minimised by using well designed sheaves and grooved drums.

The rope has an individual W.R core which enables it to have a higher breaking load, and used most often in general engineering practices. This wire-rope has an equal lay construction where all of the wires & strands have the exact same length of lay, formed in a single operation and forms a compact strand of high metallic content giving it its superior breaking load. The 6x36 W.R is available in diameters from 8mm – 76mm, and is most often used for:- Wire-rope slings, crane ropes, electric hoist ropes, tow ropes, winches, pursing wires, mooring ropes, rope rigging and life boat falls etc.
