In addition to galvanized ropes, we also offer bare ropes, brass-plated ropes, bronze ropes and black-coloured ropes. We also stock stainless steel wire ropes in various thicknesses and materials, including the common AISI 316 / 1.4401, which is resistant to seawater. In addition to this, we also have stainless steel wire ropes in AISI 304 / 1.4301, which has high corrosion resistance but is not resistant to intergranular corrosion, salt water or chlorinated water. For more demanding environments, we offer the material AISI 904L / 1.4539, which is resistant to chlorine and acids and is often used in biogas plants.
High-quality materials
For us, quality starts with the raw material. That is why we only process high-quality materials such as galvanized and bright steel, stainless steel, brass-plated steel, bronze and spring steel with strengths of 300 to 3,000 N/mm² in our modern machinery. Other materials are available on request. We can therefore guarantee that your wire rope is durable, safe and flexible.
Versatile solutions for wire ropes and accessories
Our prefabricated steel wire ropes are available with individual end pieces, providing a wide range of connection and suspension options. In addition to our ropes, we also offer an extensive range of accessories for wire ropes, including hooks, clamps, thimbles, threaded terminals and much more.
We also offer GRP rods (pipe rails) coated by the meter on reels, cut to size or with the appropriate accessories.
