1" Wire Rope from US Cargo Control

Wire rope is a versatile rigging and lifting tool, suitable for many types of applications. It's durable, corrosion-resistant and, in terms of 1 inch wire rope capacity, the working load limits range from 84,400 lbs. all the way up to 144,000 lbs.!

1" Steel Cable Construction

Multiple factors are crucial when choosing the right wire rope for you - including finish and strand count. They can affect the working load limit, the corrosion-resistance, and more.

Steel Grade

One of the first things to look at is the steel grade. Most of our 1" diameter options are graded as EIPS (Extra Improved Plowed Steel). This means they have roughly 10% more strength than a wire rope made with the standard IPS (Improved Plowed Steel).

Wire Finish Type

All 1" wire rope finishes offer corrosion-resistance, even the standard finish. Known as bright steel, the wire is uncoated except for lubricant. This lubricant offers protection from both friction and rust.

Both the galvanized and stainless steel versions offer additional protection through a topcoat. The galvanized coating is slightly stronger than the stainless steel in terms of overall break strength, but the stainless steel will hold up better against abrasion and is best-suited for marine applications.

Wire Rope Cores

Almost all of our 1" steel cables have an independent wire rope core (IWRC). Made from steel, this type of core offers more support to the outer strands, increasing the strength of the rope. Additional benefits include a higher resistance to crushing and heat. 

Strands

When we say wire rope strands, we are talking about two things:

  • How many strands make up the rope
  • How many wires make up one strand.

As an example, a 6x19 wire rope has 6 strands around the core. 19 wires make up each strand. This strand style is actually the most popular - it has good abrasion-resistance due to the construction. If you are looking for more flexibility, check out our 6x37 options.
