High-quality 6×19 wire rope with fiber core – high tensile strength, flexible, durable
Learn more about one of the most popular designs in wire rope technology! 6×19+FC is strong, flexible, and durable, making it ideal for moving applications with frequent rope deflections. And thanks to the choice between galvanized and bright steel as well as stainless steel, you can optimally adapt the cable to your specific environmental conditions. Discover our versatile solution for a wide range of applications!
Designation: 6×19+FC refers to a wire rope consisting of 6 strands, each of which consists of 19 wires. The core is a fiber insert.

Properties: 6×19 cables combine strength and flexibility, are suitable for moving applications, and offer a robust, durable solution for a wide range of applications.
Applications: These wire ropes are particularly well-suited for moving or dynamically loaded applications, such as in plant engineering, transportation technology, or the maritime sector.
Material: We manufacture the wire rope from high-quality galvanized or bright steel and also offer a stainless steel version upon request.
Versions at Hamburger Drahtseilerei: In addition to various materials, we also offer our wire ropes with coating and custom finishing. We tailor the length, diameter, and end fittings – such as hooks or eyes – exactly to the customer’s specifications.

- Transportation technology: Rolling doors, lifting systems, conveyor systems
Maximum safety with the right end fittings
To ensure that a wire rope can be securely attached to pulleys, lifting systems, or roll-up doors in material handling and transport applications, or to rope guides and control mechanisms in mechanical engineering, it must be equipped with the appropriate end fittings.
At Hamburger Drahtseilerei, we connect cables with a wide variety of hooks, thimbles, eyes, and terminals, including special clamps. Of course, in addition to the end connection, we also precisely tailor the length and diameter to your application to ensure maximum safety, stability, and service life for your wire ropes.

6×19 wire ropes with enhanced features
For specific applications, a standard 6×19 wire rope may not be sufficient. That is why we offer enhanced versions:
- 6×19S+FC: The (Seale) arrangement of the wires in the outer strand layer makes the wire rope soft and flexible. It is therefore perfectly suited for applications where it is frequently guided over pulleys or subjected to dynamic loads.
- 6×19+WSC: The construction features a steel wire core (WSC = Wire Strand Core), which significantly increases tensile strength and dimensional stability, making it ideal for heavily loaded applications or prolonged tension.
In addition, we carry many other wire ropes, which you can view here. We would be happy to advise you on which construction is best suited for your application.
