A wire rope 3/16” or 1/4” (4.8 mm or 6.4 mm) in diameter; used to handle the inner tube of a wire-line core barrel.
Compacting the rope also results in an exceptionally dense cross-section. The increased surface area, improves rope contact with the sheaves and drums. Providing greater resistance to surface wear and abrasion, reducing wear on the sheaves.
The 3-strand compacted design provides resistance to rotation while also providing a high strength/weight ratio.
These 3-strand ropes are ideal for diamond drilling operations.
