6
x 19 and 6 x 36 classification swaged rope
These ropes offer greater strength than standard
ropes of the same diameter while providing greater
resistance to drum crushing, scrubbing and similar
surface wear. To enhance the performance of
our swaged ropes in the field, we utilize a
special wire chemistry in the outer wires of
the strands. Then during production, the rope
is rotary swaged to produce a compact cross-section
with minimum voids and greater surface area
on outer wires. In addition to reducing rope
surface wear, this compact design helps reduce
wear to sheaves and minimizes crushing of the
rope on the drum. These ropes are stiffer and less fatigue resistant than standard ropes.

Power-Swage™
logging ropes
If your application requires an even stronger
rope, Power-Swage rope's have a 30% higher minimum breaking force. These ropes
are designed to resist abrasion and drum crushing
in logging applications. The compact design
with smoother wire surfaces allows you to spool
a greater length of rope onto drums than an
unswaged rope of comparable strength.

3 x 19 and 3
x 36 classification swaged wire rope
These 3 strand ropes are ideal for pulling
lines in electrical transmission line construction.
Rotary swaging the rope results in an exceptionally
compact rope cross-section. This increases surface
area, which improves rope contact with sheaves
and on drums, thereby providing greater resistance
to surface wear and abrasion while reducing
wear on sheaves. The smooth surface also helps
reduce wear on underground conduits. Lengths
may be fitted with flemish-eye ends. Please
specify whether eye is to be on inside or outside
of the reel, or at both ends.
