Wire Rope

Lifting Wire Rope

The load-bearing element in hoisting, hauling and lashing operations where strength, durability and controlled flexibility are required. Kailipu supplies 15 lifting wire rope lines across 6X7+FC, 6X19+FC, 6X24+7FC, 6X37+FC and 6X19+FC/IWRC constructions, so a buyer can cover a full lifting rope specification on one purchase order without sourcing from multiple suppliers.

Who It Is For

Buyers Who Specify Lifting Wire Rope

  • Crane and hoist operators needing rotation-resistant ropes for stable lifting on construction or industrial sites
  • Mining and drilling contractors specifying high-abrasion resistant ropes with IWRC for underground or surface operations
  • Marine and offshore contractors requiring galvanised ropes for saltwater exposure and deck handling
  • Steel fabricators and precast plants using lifting ropes in repetitive hoisting of heavy components
  • Logistics and transport companies sourcing wire ropes for securing and lifting cargo on trailers and vessels
Problems Solved

What Lifting Wire Rope Solve on the Job

  • A lifting job delayed because the required rope structure or core type is not stocked by the current supplier
  • A wire rope failing prematurely due to a fiber core in a high-abrasion mining or construction environment
  • Rotating under load on a crane hook because a rotation-resistant design was not available
  • Corrosion damage in a marine or coastal application due to using a bright rope without galvanising
  • No Material Test Certificate available, so the rope cannot be documented in a lifting register
  • Small quantities of a specific rope structure not accepted by a factory that only produces in full container loads

Applications

Where Lifting Wire Rope Are Used

  • Lifting heavy steel beams or precast panels on a construction site using a 6X19+FC/IWRC rope with high breaking strength
  • Hoisting equipment on a crane in a mining operation where abrasion resistance and core strength are critical
  • Deck handling on a marine vessel using galvanised 6X37+FC rope for corrosion resistance in saltwater exposure
  • Securing cargo on a trailer with a 6X24+7FC rope where flexibility and durability under dynamic load are needed
  • Installing a bridge component using a rotation-resistant 6X19+FC rope to prevent spinning during lift
Answers

Lifting Wire Rope FAQ

What is the difference between FC and IWRC in wire rope?
Fiber Core (FC) is made of natural or synthetic fibres, offering more flexibility but less strength and crush resistance. Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) is a separate wire rope core, providing higher breaking strength and better resistance to crushing under load.
When should I use a galvanised wire rope?
Use galvanised wire rope in outdoor, marine or corrosive environments where exposure to moisture, salt or chemicals is expected. The zinc coating provides corrosion resistance, though it reduces flexibility slightly.
What does 6X19+FC mean in wire rope notation?
6X19+FC means the rope has 6 strands, each with 19 wires, and a fiber core. This construction offers good flexibility and is commonly used in hoisting and general lifting applications.
Do you supply Material Test Certificates for wire rope?
Yes. A Material Test Certificate to EN 10204 3.1 is issued with each batch on request. Every batch undergoes proof load testing, dimensional checking and breaking strength validation.
Can you customise the length and packing of the wire rope?
Yes. Custom lengths, spooling, and packing configurations are available. We can supply in coils, reels or cut to length with custom carton and pallet setups for consolidation.
What is a rotation-resistant wire rope used for?
Rotation-resistant wire ropes are designed to minimise or eliminate spinning under load. They are used in crane operations, hoisting, and lifting where stability and control are critical.
What is the smallest order you accept?
We accept small top-up orders alongside mixed rigging purchases. There is no minimum order quantity for lifting wire rope. Send the line list and we will quote it as is.
