Steel Wire Rope ROPETEX S65
Product information
ROPETEX S65 (and S16) steel wire ropes are the most commonly used type of steel wire ropes in the range from 8 to 38 mm. Both can be used for a variety of applications. Available as S65 with Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) or as S16 with Fiber Core (FC). S65 is less flexible but has higher strength and is more dimensionally stable, especially when used on sheaves or drums. S16 is more flexible but has a lower breaking strength.
Typical applications:
- Wire rope sling
- Winch rope
- Hoisting installations
- Lifting applications
- Lifting rope
- Mooring rope
- Towing rope
- Cranes
- Hoists
Available in Right Hand Ordinary Lay (RHOL) and Left Hand Ordinary Lay (LHOL).
Alternatives:
-
ROPETEX S16 is a very comparable rope with a Fiber Core (FC) instead of an Independent Steel Wire Rope Core (IWRC);
- Rope construction: 6x36WS-IWRC

Product FAQ
What surface finish and tensile strength does this steel wire rope have?
This steel wire rope has a Galvanized, Bright and is manufactured with a tensile strength of 1960 N/mm².A bright (uncoated) finish has no corrosion protection and is therefore primarily used in dry, indoor, or controlled environments. Bright wire ropes are generally selected for cost reasons. The galvanized coating provides corrosion protection through a zinc layer, making the rope suitable for outdoor use and humid operating conditions.
What is the construction, core type, and lay of this steel wire rope?
This steel wire rope is constructed with 6 strands.
It is manufactured with a steel core, offering higher structural stability, improved resistance to crushing, and reliable performance under heavy loads and multi-layer winding conditions.
It is manufactured with an ordinary right-hand lay (sZ), providing a balanced combination of flexibility, wear resistance, and stable handling. This is the most commonly used lay for general It is manufactured with an ordinary left-hand lay (zS), offering similar performance characteristics to right-hand ordinary lay but designed for specific directional or equipment requirement
