Description

The 6×K19 Compacted Strand Wire Rope is a high-performance wire rope composed of 6 compacted strands, each made from 19 wires arranged in a K-type configuration. The “K” designation refers to compacted strands—formed by shaping and compressing the wires to create a denser structure with a smooth surface, higher metal cross-section, and superior strength compared to non-compacted equivalents. This rope strikes a balance between flexibility and tensile strength, making it ideal for demanding industrial and lifting applications requiring abrasion resistance, fatigue endurance, and excellent performance on multi-layer winding drums.

Feature of 6×K19 Compacted Strand Wire Rope

• Compacted Structure: Through the compaction process, the individual wires in each strand are compressed together, increasing the overall strength of the rope and reducing internal friction.
• Higher Load Capacity: The compacted design allows the wire rope to withstand higher loads, making it suitable for heavy-duty lifting and hauling tasks.
• Improved Wear Resistance: The tight packing of the wires reduces friction between them, enhancing the rope's abrasion resistance and extending its service life in demanding environments.
• Fatigue Resistance: The compacted strands make the rope more resistant to fatigue from repeated bending and stretching, significantly increasing its durability.
• Better Flexibility: Despite its increased strength, compacted strand wire ropes maintain a good level of flexibility, allowing them to perform well in applications that require frequent bending or movement.
