There are some applications where the use of a galvanized wire rope may be beneficial. If corrosion is not a significant issue relating to rope life then a bright rope can be selected.

Where moisture can penetrate the rope and attack the core, plastic impregnation (PI) can be considered.

In order to minimise the effects of corrosion it is important to select a wire rope with a suitable manufacturing lubricant. Further advantages can be gained by lubricating the rope regularly in service.

Rope Extension
If rope extension is critical refer to technical data.
