Description

The 6×K61 Compacted Strand Wire Rope is a high-performance steel wire rope made up of 6 compacted strands, each consisting of 61 wires arranged in a layered configuration. The "K" strand denotes compacted strand construction, where each strand is shaped under pressure to create a denser metal cross-section and a smoother external surface. This results in superior fatigue resistance, enhanced strength, and low wear characteristics, making the rope ideal for multi-layer winding and heavy-duty applications. With a large number of wires per strand, 6×K61 ropes offer exceptional flexibility without compromising breaking strength, making them ideal for dynamic applications involving frequent bending, high abrasion, and intense mechanical stress.

Feature of 6×K61 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.
