Do NOT use class 6x19 wire rope attached to a swivel. The rope WILL unlay resulting in an unsafe condition.

Block Twisting (Cabling) will occur when used exceeding certain lifting heights. Call for advice
 
 

Main Applications:
Rope for UNI-LOC® Wire Rope Slings.
Applications which demand a more crush- & abrasion resistant wire rope. Winch lines, railings, suspension cables, boom pendants, boom hoist ropes, anchor lines. Also used as hoisting rope on many old design overhead cranes.

Rope Characteristic:
Wear & crush resistant, but not very flexible. Less fatigue resistant then 6x36 rope.

Standard:
ASTM 1023/A 1023M, Table 11
CSA G-4-00
RR-W-410E

Rope Diameter / Rope Construction these ropes are typically supplied in:
5/16 – 3/8" = 6 x 19 Seale
7/16 – 3/4" = 6 x 26 WS
7/8" & up = 6 x 25 Filler

Class 6x19 wire rope is NOT rotation- or spin resistant.
