1/2″ 19×19 Rotation-Resistant Wire Rope Cable

This 1/2″ 19×19 rotation-resistant wire rope is designed for demanding lifting and hoisting applications where minimizing load spin and rope rotation is critical. Manufactured from Extra Improved Plow Steel (EIPS) and featuring a compacted 19×19 construction, this wire rope delivers enhanced strength, improved spooling performance, and increased resistance to crushing and wear while maintaining excellent flexibility.

1/2″ 19×19 Rotation-Resistant Wire Rope for Cranes, Hoists & Heavy Lifting Applications

Engineered with opposing inner and outer strand lays, this Category 2 rotation-resistant wire rope helps counteract rotational forces that develop under load, making it ideal for lifting unguided loads with single-part line systems. The compacted construction creates a smoother outer surface and higher metallic cross-sectional area, improving strength and durability compared to non-compacted ropes of the same diameter. Combined with an Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) and bright steel finish, this rope delivers reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.

Key Features

• Compacted 19×19 Construction: Increases strength, improves spooling, and enhances resistance to crushing and abrasion.
• Rotation-Resistant Design: Opposing strand construction helps minimize rope rotation and load spin during lifting operations.
• EIPS Steel Construction: Extra Improved Plow Steel provides increased tensile strength and dependable performance.
• IWRC Core: Independent Wire Rope Core improves structural support, crushing resistance, and load stability.

Common Applications

• Crane hoist lines
• Single-part line lifting systems
• Heavy industrial hoisting
• Material handling equipment
• Construction and infrastructure lifting operations

Installation Tips

• Use wire rope fittings, clips, and hardware that are properly sized for the rope diameter.
• Inspect wire rope, terminations, and hardware for signs of wear, corrosion, kinking, or damage before installation and throughout service life.
• Do not use this rotation-resistant wire rope with swivels unless specifically approved by the equipment manufacturer.

Wire Rope by the Foot Ordering FAQ

Will my wire rope arrive as one continuous length?
Yes. The quantity you order will be supplied as one continuous, uncut length of wire rope. For example, if you order a quantity of 1,000, you will receive a single 1,000-foot length.

Can I order multiple separate lengths?
Yes. To receive multiple lengths, add each length to your cart as a separate line item. For example, if you need two 1,500-foot lengths, enter a quantity of 1,500 and add it to your cart twice. Each line item will be cut and supplied as a separate length.

Can I order lengths shorter than the minimum order quantity if the combined total exceeds the minimum?
Yes. If your combined order will exceed the minimum quantity requirement but you need shorter individual lengths, please call our team to place your order. One of our product experts will be happy to assist.
