Description

The 8×K61 Compacted Strand Steel Wire Rope is a high-performance, ultra-flexible lifting rope composed of 8 compacted K-type strands, each containing 61 wires in a carefully engineered multi-layer construction. The "K" strand configuration (compacted) increases the metallic cross-sectional area, resulting in improved breaking load, abrasion resistance, and fatigue life—especially in multi-layer winding and high-load applications. This rope is designed for operations where high flexibility, load capacity, and resistance to crushing are essential, making it a top choice for heavy-duty cranes, offshore winches, and high-cycle industrial applications.

Feature of 8×K61 Compacted Strand Steel 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.
