Domestic 1/2" 6x19 Galvanized Wire Rope - EIPS IWRC

This 1/2" galvanized wire rope is made in the USA with Extra Improved Plow Steel (EIPS) and configured in a 6x26 construction for dependable strength and wear resistance. With an Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC), it offers stable performance under load - ideal for hoisting, winch lines, suspension, and general rigging jobs where corrosion resistance matters.

Corrosion‑Resistant Galvanized Cable for Rigging, Lifting & Winching

The hot‑dip drawn galvanized finish protects the wire rope from rust and environmental exposure, extending service life compared to bright steel. Because the drawn galvanizing process preserves the rope’s original strength, you get the same load‑handling capability as a bright rope - with added durability for outdoor, marine, or high‑moisture use. Manufactured to meet federal standards under RR‑W‑410 and ASTM A1023, this wire rope is built for reliable, heavy-duty performance.

6x19 Wire Rope Configuration

Our wire rope is made using EIPS-grade cable. EIPS (Extra Improved Plow Steel) refers to the strength of the wire rope - its tensile strength is around 10% greater than an IPS grade, improving the break strength.

The class of this wire rope is 6x19. These numbers nominally refer to the construction of the wire rope - the number of outer strands around the core and an estimation of the number of wires within each of these outer strands. So for a 6x19 class, the number of outer strands is 6, and the number of wires making up each strand ranges from 15-26.

Wire Rope by the Foot Ordering FAQ

Does this wire rope come as one length? Yes, the quantity you add to the cart will be provided as one unbroken length of rope. So if you add this to the cart with a quantity of 1000, you will receive one 1000-foot long rope.

Can I order multiple separate lengths? Yes. For example, if you need two 1500-foot lengths of rope, you would set the quantity to 1500 and then add that to the cart twice. For each separate instance you add this to the cart, you will get a separate length of rope.
