Wire rope or steel rope, whatever you call it, it remains an impressive product. It is a rope composed of steel wires carefully braided around a core. The main function of a wire rope is to transmit tensile forces, which is crucial in applications such as hoisting, lifts, winches, cable bridges and cable cars. A wire rope consists of individual wires joined into strands. In the case of multi-strand cables, these strands are in turn woven around a core, resulting in the formation of a complete cable. In addition, wire ropes can be braided into a loop, called a grummet, or even an endless loop.
To complete your wire rope and offer more possibilities, there are some handy accessories in our range. Whether you need to make a loop on the wire rope, attach a hook to the wire rope, or tension the wire rope, we have the right material to make various wire rope assemblies. Our range is constantly expanding with new additions, and we are happy to show them off. We are quite proud of the many options our range offers for various wire ropes.
Our wire rope accessories in detail:
- Carabiners: Our carabiners offer quick and secure fastening for various applications. They are available in various sizes and materials, including durable steel and corrosion-resistant stainless steel (SST).
- Wire rope clamps: For a firm grip on wire ropes, our wire rope clamps offer the perfect solution. They are available in different sizes and materials to suit specific requirements.
- Wire rope drum hooks: Efficiency is paramount with our wire rope hooks, designed to facilitate the hoisting of wire ropes on reels. Robust and reliable, these hooks are designed to last.
- Lifting hooks: For safe hoisting or lashing, we have a range of hooks with an eye attachment that meet the highest norms of quality and safety. Whether heavy loads or delicate loads, we have the right lifting hook for every application.
- Snatch blocks: Our snatch blocks are designed for smooth movement. They are available in different configurations to meet different requirements. We have them with a harp shackle or a hook connection. They serve to guide the load and distribute the load evenly across the pulley. This reduces the wear of the hoisting rope and improves the stability of the hoisting process.
- Turnbuckles: For tensioning wire ropes, our turnbuckles offer a simple and effective solution. They are available in several variants, sizes, and materials.
- Ferrule clips: Safety is crucial, and our pressing clamps ensure reliable and durable fastening of wire ropes. Press clamps are attached with a pressing bar or a machine press. These crimping clamps are available in aluminum or stainless steel.
- Thimbles: For protecting loops and improving durability, we have thimble with stub-end and standard thimbles available.
- Wire rope cutters: Efficiency and precision go hand in hand with our high-quality cable cutters, designed for precise cutting of wire ropes.
Choice of material
We understand that different environments have different requirements. That is why we offer our extensive range of wire rope accessories in three materials: traditional steel, aluminum and stainless steel (SST). This allows you to choose the right materials based on environmental factors and the specific needs of a project.
- Aluminum is a lightweight, corrosion-resistant material that is ideal for applications where weight and resistance are important. For example, it is a popular choice for wire rope accessories in the maritime sector, where the weight of the material plays an essential role.
- Steel is a strong, durable material that is ideal for applications where high loads are expected. For example, it is a popular choice for wire rope accessories in the construction sector, where steel cables are often used to hoist heavy objects.
- Stainless steel is a corrosion-resistant material that is ideal for applications where the steel comes into contact with aggressive substances. For example, it is a popular choice for wire rope accessories in the chemical industry, where wire ropes are typically used to transport liquids and gases.
Whatever project needs to be tackled, we have the right wire rope accessories for various possibilities. Our extensive range, available in steel, aluminum and stainless steel, makes us an all-in-one stop for all lifting and hoisting needs. Discover today the quality and diversity we have to offer and make projects safer and more efficient.
