Hoist line* and drag rope

6 x 26 WS LL IWRC

6 x 26 TUF-KOTE^® / PFV^®

Lang lay ropes generally improve the fatigue life of a hoist line used only as a dragline hoist and where there is a single layer winding on a grooved drum. Resistance to abrasion is enhanced by the lang lay construction for the drag ropes. The use of TUF-KOTE / PFV will further enhance the performance of the ropes in both applications.

Dump Rope

6 x 26 WS LL IWRC

Dump Ropes are subject to extreme bending fatigue and need to be relatively stable constructions.   The WS construction in a lang lay provides the best solution to these demands.   TUF-KOTE / PFV will improve performance in most applications.

Boom hoist

*If you're also using the dragline in crane applications, we recommend you use a regular lay rope.
