6X31 is a flexible general engineering wire rope readily available in both galvanised and marine grade stainless steel. The wire rope has an equal lay construction (warrington seale) and achieves a superior breaking load to the 6X19 construction range. A 6X31 wire rope is available with either FC (fibre core) or IWRC (independent wire rope core) and is used for a wide range of applications, examples of which are shown below.
*Wire rope slings
*Crane ropes
*Hoist rope
*General engineering applications
*Winch ropes
*Lifeboat falls
*Wire rope rigging applications
