Specifications
7/8" 6x26 Wire Rope Cable
This 7/8" Impact® swaged 6x26 wire rope is engineered for demanding lifting, winching, and material handling applications. Through a compacting process known as swaging, the rope diameter is reduced during manufacturing, creating a denser, smoother wire rope with increased strength, improved flexibility, and enhanced resistance to wear. The result is a longer-lasting wire rope that performs exceptionally well in high-use industrial environments.
Compacted Wire Rope for Winch Lines, Hoists & Material Handling
The swaging process improves rope performance in several key areas. Compared to standard non-compacted wire rope of the same diameter, this 6x26 construction offers greater breaking strength, improved spooling characteristics, enhanced crush resistance, and better resistance to kinking and pig tailing. These benefits help reduce downtime and extend service life in demanding applications.
This wire rope is commonly used for winch lines, choker ropes, hoist ropes, trolley lines, boom lines, and other heavy-duty lifting and pulling applications.
6x26 Wire Rope Configuration
Our wire rope is manufactured using EIPS-grade steel. EIPS (Extra Improved Plow Steel) provides approximately 10% greater tensile strength than standard IPS-grade wire rope, resulting in improved breaking strength and dependable load-carrying performance.
The class of this wire rope is 6x26. These numbers nominally refer to the rope construction, consisting of six outer strands surrounding the core, with approximately 19-36 wires making up each strand. This configuration provides an excellent balance of strength, flexibility, and durability.
Bright Finish & IWRC Construction
This wire rope features a bright steel finish protected with an 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 superior support compared to fiber core constructions. IWRC wire rope provides enhanced crushing resistance, increased load stability, and dependable performance in temperatures ranging from -40°F to 400°F.

Wire Rope by the Foot Ordering FAQ
Will my wire rope arrive as one continuous length?
Yes. The quantity you order will be supplied as one continuous, uncut length of wire rope. For example, if you order a quantity of 1,000, you will receive a single 1,000-foot length.
Can I order multiple separate lengths?
Yes. To receive multiple lengths, add each length to your cart as a separate line item. For example, if you need two 1,500-foot lengths, enter a quantity of 1,500 and add it to your cart twice. Each line item will be cut and supplied as a separate length.
Can I order lengths shorter than the minimum order quantity if the combined total exceeds the minimum?
Yes. If your combined order will exceed the minimum quantity requirement but you need shorter individual lengths, please call our team to place your order. One of our product experts will be happy to assist.
