Throughout our 6x36 stainless steel rope range,
customers have the option of either a fibre or wire core.
With a fibre core this 40mm rope has a 84.5 tonne WLL, compared to the higher 91 tonne capacity of its wire core equivalent we mentioned earlier. To make up for such limitations, the fibre core does make the rope more flexible, easing the wear and tear that might otherwise build up in some circumstances.
Breaking force is also listed below, with the fibre core sitting at 829kN while the wire core offers an 894kN rating. Some of our other wire rope is stronger in relative terms, but does not match the 6x36 range in terms of diameter.
