Wire Ropes by Application

KATRADIS Compacted Steel Wire Ropes are manufactured using a specialized compacting process that flattens outer wires, creating a denser cross-section with a smoother surface area.

  • Enhanced Breaking Load: Greater metallic cross-sectional area provides significantly higher breaking strength.

  • Superior Drum & Sheave Protection: Smooth outer surface reduces contact pressure, minimizing wear on winch drums and sheaves.

  • High Abrasion & Fatigue Resistance: Excellent resistance to mechanical damage, crushing, and bending fatigue in heavy-duty hoisting.

Essential for high-capacity marine cranes, offshore winches, and demanding construction applications.
