Description
High Strength • Low Stretch • Ideal for Heavy Lifting Applications
The 10mm IWRC Steel Wire Rope (Ungalvanised) is a high-performance lifting and rigging rope designed for applications where maximum strength, durability, and load stability are essential. Built with an Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC), this rope offers superior crush resistance, reduced stretch, and higher breaking loads compared to fibre-core ropes of the same diameter.
Ungalvanised finish makes it ideal for indoor, machinery, lifting, and engineering applications where lubrication, flexibility, and high tensile performance are prioritised over corrosion resistance.
Construction
-

The IWRC core provides:
-
Higher strength
-
Better resistance to crushing on drums and sheaves
-
Increased durability under heavy load cycles
Key Features
1. High Tensile Strength
Engineered from high-grade carbon steel, offering excellent load performance and reliability for industrial lifting.
2. IWRC Core for Extra Durability
The independent steel core:
-
Increases breaking strength
-
Improves structural stability
-
Reduces rope deformation under load
3. Enhanced Fatigue Resistance
Ungalvanised ropes hold lubrication better and deliver improved fatigue life under repetitive bending, making them suitable for cranes and hoists.
4. Smooth, Controlled Operation
Ideal for winches, hoists, and lifting mechanisms requiring consistent, stable performance.
Common Applications
-
Electric & manual hoists
-
Tower cranes
-
Overhead cranes
-
Winches & lifting machinery
-
Engineering & fabrication workshops
-
Industrial rigging equipment
-
Sheaves & drum-operated lifting systems
Technical Advantages
-
Greater crush resistance compared to fibre core
-
Better performance in multi-layer winding
-
Low stretch under working load
-
Suitable for high-load applications
Why Choose Ungalvanised?
Ungalvanised steel wire rope is preferred when:
-
High breaking strength is required
-
The rope will operate indoors or in protected environments
-
Lubrication absorption and fatigue resistance are crucial
-
Corrosion is not a primary concern
