Designation: The 1×19 construction describes a rope consisting of a single strand with 19 wires.

Properties: High tensile strength, low elongation and a particularly smooth surface.

Application: Typically used for straight, aesthetic tensioning systems in architecture, industry or leisure projects.

Surface: Stainless steel ensures maximum corrosion resistance and long-lasting shine, even when exposed to the elements or in maritime environments.

Versions at Hamburger Drahtseilerei: In addition to ungalvanized stainless steel, coated versions and ready-made items with end connections are also available.

A stainless steel cable in a 1×19 construction is the preferred solution for railing infills, balustrades and façade elements. Its fine structure ensures a smooth surface that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. In combination with matching wire rope holders and other attachment points, it creates durable, visually clear tensioning systems. Thanks to the corrosion resistance of stainless steel, the rope remains reliable and stable even in changing weather conditions.

• Maritime applications: in standing rigging, railings or tarpaulin systems where stainless steel is essential.
• Technical systems: for measuring and testing structures where a dimensionally stable cable with low elongation is required.
• Safety solutions: in barriers, safety systems or in combination with nets and chains.
• Design: a wire rope as a design element for clear, filigree lines in architecture and interior design.

A key advantage of stainless steel is its durability. Stainless steel cables in a 1×19 construction can withstand weathering, UV radiation and salty air for many years. Benefit from our cables as a future-proof investment for construction, architecture and industry. The appropriate material should be selected depending on the intended use, for example 1.4301, 1.4401 or, for particularly demanding environments, 1.4529, 1.4462.

The right accessories are crucial for the professional use of stainless steel cables, and you can of course obtain these from us. In architecture and railing systems, end fastenings such as wire rope holders and attachment points ensure that the cables are installed securely and attractively. In industry, shackles, eyelets, clamps and other slings are used when the highest loads are involved. In addition, thimbles and sleeves ensure a durable fastening and increase the safety of the entire system.
