The 6X19 & 6X36 classification of wire ropes is good for fatigue resistance and to withstand abrasion or crushing on the drum.

  • 6 x 19S (Seale) -This is a good rope to withstand abrasion or crushing on the drum but its fatigue resistance is decreased.
  • 6 x 25FW (Filler Wire) - To most wire rope users, 6 x 19 means 6 x 25 filler wire. It is a common rope in the 6 x 19 classification.
  • 6 x 26WS (Warrington Seale) - A standard 6 x 26WS design provides the best rope for a wide range of applications. In general, we recommend the use of a 6 x 26WS In any application where a 6 x 25FW is used.
