Stainless Steel Wire Rope is manufactured from high-grade stainless steel alloys AISI 304, 316, 316L, also Inconel, to meet diverse application requirements. Stainless steel wire rope is material for rope mesh products and webnet systems, also used as hoister cables in industrial uses. SS wire rope is also called Stainless Steel Cable Wire or Stranded Wire.

Stainless wire rope is constructed with various strand configurations and lay patterns, ensuring optimal performance in architectural designs, safety barriers, or marine applications.

SS wire rope is mainly used in marine and offshore applications as rigging rope, mooring lines and winch cables due to its excellent corrosion resistance in saltwater environments.

In architectural and construction applications, SS wire rope is mainly used as balustrade cables, suspension bridge cables, tensile structure supports and facade reinforcement due to its strength, durability, and aesthetic appeal.

Wire rope is also widely used in lifting and hoisting applications as crane ropes, elevator cables, industrial lifting slings, and mining hoist lines.
