• Crush-resistant

• Increased bendability

• Category 3 rotation-resistant rope

Standard constructions are regular lay and either 19 Seale or 25 Filler Wire. The size relationship between strands and cores gives these ropes increased bendability over six strand ropes of the same diameter. The 8x19 has more crushing resistance and a higher minimum breaking force than 19x7, but less rotation resistance.  An 8x19 class rope can be used in multi-part reeving where limited rotation resistance is required.
