Domestic 5/8″ 6×37 Bright Wire Rope – EIPS IWRC

This USA-made 5/8″ bright wire rope is manufactured from Extra Improved Plow Steel (EIPS) and features a 6×36 construction within the 6×37 class, providing exceptional flexibility and fatigue resistance. Built with an Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC), this wire rope offers superior support, crush resistance, and load stability, making it an excellent choice for hoisting, winching, suspension systems, and other applications involving repeated bending and dynamic loads.

Colored strands may appear in some domestic wire ropes for manufacturer identification or visibility purposes. These color variations do not affect assembly break strength or performance.

Flexible Wire Cable for Hoisting, Winching & Dynamic Rigging Applications

The 6×37 class is designed for applications where flexibility and bending performance are critical. Compared to 6×19 wire rope, the 6×36 construction provides greater flexibility and superior fatigue resistance, helping extend service life in systems that regularly cycle over sheaves and drums. While slightly less abrasion-resistant than a 6×19 rope, it excels in high-movement lifting and rigging applications.

The bright steel finish is lubricated with a petroleum-based compound that helps reduce internal friction, minimize wear, and provide light moisture protection. Manufactured to meet RR-W-410 and ASTM A1023 specifications, this rope delivers dependable performance in demanding industrial environments.

6×37 Wire Rope Configuration

Our wire rope is manufactured using EIPS-grade steel. EIPS (Extra Improved Plow Steel) offers approximately 10% greater tensile strength than standard IPS-grade wire rope, resulting in increased breaking strength and improved performance under heavy loads.

The class of this wire rope is 6×37. These numbers nominally refer to the rope construction, consisting of six outer strands surrounding the core, with approximately 27-49 wires making up each strand. The actual construction supplied is 6×36, which falls within the 6×37 classification and provides the flexibility and fatigue resistance this rope class is known for.

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.
