1x19 and 1x37 Stainless Steel Spiral Strands
Used in straight line applications. This is the most commonly used structural strand.
Compacted Strand or Dyform™ Cables
Compacted Strand or Dyform™ Cables have a higher metallic cross section than ordinary strands. Consequently they have a higher axial stiffness and characteristic breaking load for a given diameter. These cables are particularly suited for applications where stretch is a major concern. The low stretch can simplify the installation of complex structures.
7-strand wire ropes
7-strand wire ropes are designed to be used where flexibility is required, such as boundary cables, hoist ropes and some balustrades.
