Specifications
5/8" 6x37 Wire Rope Cable | Bright Steel
This 5/8" bright steel wire rope is manufactured from Extra Improved Plow Steel (EIPS) and features a flexible 6x37 class construction. Designed for applications involving frequent bending and movement, this wire rope provides excellent fatigue resistance while maintaining the strength required for lifting, hoisting, suspension systems, winch lines, and general rigging applications. Its versatility makes it a popular choice across construction, industrial, utility, and material-handling environments.
Flexible Steel Cable for Hoisting, Rigging & Winch Applications
The 6x37 class is known for its superior flexibility and ability to withstand repeated bending cycles. Compared to a 6x19 wire rope, the 6x37 construction offers greater fatigue resistance and easier handling, making it ideal for applications where the rope frequently passes over sheaves or drums. While it provides less abrasion resistance than a 6x19 rope, it excels in dynamic lifting and movement-intensive operations.
6x37 Wire Rope Configuration
This wire rope is manufactured using EIPS-grade (Extra Improved Plow Steel) steel. EIPS wire rope provides approximately 10% greater tensile strength than IPS-grade wire rope, resulting in increased breaking strength and dependable performance under demanding loads.
The class of this wire rope is 6x37. These numbers nominally refer to the rope construction, consisting of six outer strands surrounding the core, with approximately 27-49 wires making up each strand. The actual construction supplied is 6x36, which falls within the 6x37 classification and delivers excellent flexibility and fatigue resistance.
Bright Finish & IWRC Construction
This rope features a bright steel finish protected with A-1 petroleum-based lubricant applied to both internal and external wires. The lubricant helps reduce friction, minimize internal wear, and provide basic resistance to moisture and corrosion.
The Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) offers greater support than fiber core constructions. IWRC wire rope provides improved crush resistance, enhanced load stability, and reliable performance in temperatures ranging from -40°F to 400°F.
