8 Outer Strands, PowerStrand High Performance Wire Rope
This rope has eight outer strands which are compacted for crush resistance on multi-layer drums. Compacting the outer strands increases the strength and along with the plastic core the stability of the rope is increased. This rope is ideal for increased service life as a direct replacement for regular 6 or 8 strand ropes in many crane applications including self erecting cranes, ship to shore container cranes, crawler cranes, tower cranes and overhead cranes.
