Technical Specifications for 6x25Fi Steel Wire Rope
The 6x25Fi (Filler Wire) is a cornerstone of the lifting industry, engineered for superior performance where operational life is defined by resistance to fatigue and crushing. Its unique strand design features small filler wires that fill the gaps between two layers of main wires, creating a highly compact and stable strand profile.
This density provides excellent support for the wires, significantly reducing internal friction and wear during bending cycles. The result is a durable yet flexible rope that maintains its structural integrity under intense, repetitive stress, making it a preferred choice for a wide range of industrial cranes and hoists.

6×25Fi FC Steel Wire Rope
This version combines the high-fatigue resistance of the 6x25Fi strands with the flexibility and economic value of a fiber core. It provides excellent performance and a long service life for many standard applications, including overhead EOT cranes, mobile crane hoist ropes, and various winch lines where a balance of durability and handling is essential.
6×25Fi IWR Steel Wire Rope
For the most severe applications, the IWR core maximizes the potential of the 6x25Fi design. The steel core provides a solid foundation that greatly enhances the rope’s breaking strength and offers maximum resistance to crushing on multi-layer drums. It is the top-tier specification for main hoist lines on industrial production cranes, steel mill cranes, and other critical lifting operations where safety, longevity, and performance are paramount.
