4.0mm 6×7 G1570 Red Coated Galvanised Steel Wire Rope

4.0mm Red Coated 6×7 G1570 Galvanised Steel Wire Rope is PVC covered and can be used to for repair, barrier cable, handles, or light rigging. Consequently, it is commonly referred to as ‘working wire’ as Galvanised Wire Rope will not work harden in the same way that Stainless Steel wire will over time. This 4.0mm Red Coated 6×7 G1570 Galvanised Steel Wire Rope has a cumulative diameter of ~6.0mm. We recommend this wire with Thimble and Ferrule fittings. Usage of the wire suits fittings for4.0mm. Tensile Strength (MBS) = ~856.6kg

This 4.0mm Red Coated 6×7 G1570 Galvanised Steel Wire Rope has a cumulative diameter of ~6.0mm. We recommend this wire with Thimble and Ferrule fittings. Usage of the wire suits fittings for4.0mm. Tensile Strength (MBS) = ~856.6kg

What is this?

  • 4.0mm / 6.0mm 6×7 FC Red (Translucent) PVC Coated G1570 Galvanised Steel Wire Rope

What are the dimensions?

  • Wire diameter:
    • Core (without coating): 4.0mm
    • Total (with coating): 6.0mm
  • Wire Construction is 6×7 Fiber Core
  • Grade is 1570 Galvanised Steel
  • Tensile Strength (MBS) = ~856.6kg

What is it for?

  • Common applications include: Warning Wire, Art Installations, Light Shop Fitting, Control (Bowen) Cables, Invisible Object Suspension, including Theatre Production Infrastructure.

What is included?

  • A single continuous length of up to 1000M. Sum combinations of the variable sizes to get the desired total length. For example – choose a quantity of “8” of the 10M size to select a single length of 80 Metres.
  • 100M or less is packaged as a coil in a sealed plastic envelope
  • >100M is loaded on a spool.

What are the features?

  • Flexibility: mid-range
  • Coating: UV-Resistant and Stable
  • Shape Retention: resists kinking
  • Stretch: none
  • Corrosion Resistance: Reasonable

What works with this product?

  • Manually crimped fittings (Thimbles and Ferrules) secure and terminate the wire rope.
  • Optimal Ferrule/Sleeve material is Aluminium
  • Optimal Thimble material is Galvanised Steel finished with an electroplated zinc coating to increase corrosion resistance.
  • Both Copper and Aluminium crimps suit this wire in aggressive environments
  • Removal of the coating and the use of sleeves on bare wire rope confers maximum strength of connection

What to avoid with this product?

  • Retention of the coating on the wire rope in a connection section greatly diminishes the connectionstrength.
  • Bulldog clamps (wire rope grips) can be used successfully with this wire.

How to plan regular cleaning & Maintenance for increased product durability... Read More To ensure the longevity of your product, a planned regular cleaning and maintenance approach is highly recommended. Whether the product is wire, fittings, or even tools -the frequency of cleaning, maintenance and inspection will vary depending on many factors such as environment, usage levels, required performance, and any inherent risk or safety factors. All of these things are worthy of consideration when planning predictive and/or preventative maintenance...

Given the vast proportion of Australia's population resides near a shoreline - the effect of a marine environment is often the most significant factor in product longevity

The table below proposes a cleaning schedule based only on "environment". It is intended as a guide and should be varied as required. We recommend using non-aggressive cleaning agents and fresh water for routine maintenance.

Environment Agression Level Distance from Coast Cleaning Schedule
Indoors environment Very Low N/A Every 18 - 48 Months
Clean inland environment Low 20km + Every 10 - 12 Months
Moderate urban or coastal environment Medium 1-5km Every 4 - 6 Months
Harsh urban or coastal environment High < 500m Every 2 - 3 Months
Severe coastal/ marine environment Extreme < 500m Every 1 - 2 Weeks
