6x41WS Wire Rope Round Strand Steel Cable Rope

6x41WS Wire Rope Round Strand Steel Cable Rope

Gostern 6×41WS Warrington Seale Steel Wire Rope is manufactured from high quality carbon steel with excellent tensile strength, superior flexibility and outstanding fatigue resistance. This rope features 6 strands of 41 wires each in a sophisticated Warrington-Seale (WS) construction – a 复合型结构 (compound construction) combining the best features of both Warrington and Seale designs within each strand . The WS design features alternating thick and thin outer wires (Warrington pattern) with a 层压式西鲁层 (layered Seale pattern) underneath, providing an excellent balance of flexibility, strength, and wear resistance .

Available with FC (Fiber Core) for maximum flexibility and shock absorption or IWRC (Independent Wire Rope Core) for increased strength, crushing resistance and stability in multi-layer spooling . Available in galvanized (zinc coated for corrosion resistance) or ungalvanized (bright) finish .

This Warrington Seale Construction Hoist Rope features a densely packed wire arrangement with more wires per strand than standard 6×19 or 6×37 constructions, resulting in superior flexibility and bending fatigue resistance while maintaining good wear resistance . The 6×41WS construction is considered a premium high-performance general purpose rope, offering an excellent balance of strength, flexibility, and fatigue resistance .

It is widely used as High Fatigue Resistance Steel Rope for overhead cranes and hoists, as Extra Flexible Lifting Cable for tower cranes and mobile cranes, as Heavy Duty Crane Wire Rope for large capacity cranes, as Mining Hoist Cable for mine hoisting, and as Multi Layer Spooling Wire Rope for deep mine shafts and offshore applications . Available in diameters from 10mm to 60mm , with Grade 1570 MPa to 1960 MPa tensile strength options .

Construction Features:

• Warrington-Seale design (WS): Combines alternating thick/thin outer wires (Warrington) with underlying Seale layer

• 41-wire strand: Higher wire count for superior flexibility

• Compound construction: Excellent fatigue resistance

• Dense packing: Smooth surface, reduced wear on drums and sheaves

Performance Comparison - 6×41WS:

• Flexibility: Higher than 6×19, similar to 6×36WS

• Wear Resistance: Better than 6×19S, similar to 6×36WS

• Fatigue Resistance: Excellent, ideal for high-cycle applications

• Strength: High, due to dense wire packing

Core Selection Guide:

• FC Core: Best flexibility, shock absorption – ideal for single layer spooling

• IWRC Core: Maximum strength, excellent crush resistance – ideal for multi-layer spooling

Important Note: Do not exceed recommended working load limits. Regular inspection for wear, broken wires, and diameter reduction is required.
