Commonly used for binding applications. Besides 6x12FC, similar point-contact wire ropes such as 6x15FC and 6x24FC are also frequently used for binding operations.
On engineering vessels, because winch pulleys are typically small, softer wire ropes are required. Furthermore, river and sea salvage operations also require wire ropes that are flexible, easy to bind, and able to withstand instantaneous impacts; therefore, this type of galvanized wire rope has been consistently used.
We do OEM work for Korea brand Youngwire and DSR. Produce wire strands for European brand Gustav wolf and Pheifer.
