Galvanised Steel Wire Rope Ø12.0 mm 6×37 with Fibre Core FC

The galvanised steel wire rope with a diameter of 12.0 mm in a 6×37 construction is the most flexible of the classic steel wire ropes. Thanks to six strands, each made up of thirty-seven thin wires, it stands out for its exceptional flexibility and ease of routing over pulleys — making it the optimal choice wherever installation requires small bending radii and repeated winding of the rope on drums or pulleys.

The wires, made in strength grade 1770 N/mm², provide high load capacity, while the zinc (Zn) coating effectively protects the rope against corrosion, extending its service life even in demanding weather conditions. The fibre core (FC) further increases the flexibility of the entire construction and provides internal lubrication of the wires.

6×37 rope construction

The 6×37 construction means 6 strands, each consisting of 37 wires, wound around a central fibre core (FC). The large number of thin wires in each strand is key to high flexibility — the rope easily coils onto winch drums and passes freely through pulley systems. The dark area in the centre of the cross-section is the fibre core, which acts as a cushion and a lubricant reservoir.

Sale and packaging

The rope is sold by the running metre — the ordered length is supplied in a single piece. The rope is factory-wound on a 50 m reel; ordering 50 m will get you a complete, originally packaged reel.

Wire rope cut to length – important information before you buy

This wire rope is sold by the metre: we cut it from the reel or coil to exactly the length stated in your order, so you only pay for what you actually need. A length cut to your specification is a made-to-order item and therefore cannot be returned – including under the right to cancel distance contracts. Before placing your order, please check the required length and diameter carefully.

This does not affect your statutory rights: if the rope is faulty, or the length or diameter delivered does not match your order, please let us know – we will handle your complaint under the general rules.
