WRI® DyPac 18

WRI® DyPac 18 series is a compacted rotation resistant rope construction consisting of an inner rope laid in one direction and an outer layer of strands laid in the opposite direction.

WRI Surelift® 35

WRI Surelift® 35 is a high performance, compacted low rotational rope that combines various multistrand designs to achieve excellent rotation resistance in high lift operations.

WRI® Ultra

WRI® brand rope without a plastic coating, Ultra is available in 6-strand design for drag position and 8-strand configuration for hoist position.

WRI Cushion® 34

A 34x19 construction provides improved flexibility and an approximate natural loop to rope ratio of 45-1. Multi-strand spin resistance and plastic enhancement allow for smooth in-service operation, significantly reduced rope torque and stretch, and less movement in the shaft whenthe rope is at full speed. Full plastic impregnation improves spin-resistance and eliminates internal cross cutting of the strands which is common to other multi-strand products, thereby extending service life and improving security. Galvanised wire and WRI's patented one-step impregnationand jacketing process, which provides a thick protectiveouter layer of plastic, prevents contaminants fromcorroding the rope and eliminates the need for costly in-field lubrication.

WRI® DyPac 34

DyPac strand enhancement of a 34x7 (LCD) construction provides additional performance, an increase in strength of approximately 15%, reduced sheave and drum wear, and significantly enhanced drum spooling. As a result, operating depths can be extended up to approximately 6000 ft. (1830 m).

WRI Cushion Pac® Ultra

WRI® brand advanced plastic coated, 8 compacted strand construction

WRI® DyPac 6

WRI® DyPac 6 is a high performance compacted single layer rope construction for various cranes and industrial applications.

WRI Power-Loc® HLC

WRI Power-Loc® HLC guide and rubbing ropes have five decades of proven track record. A specially designed half-locked coil construction provides excellent rotation resistance, superior wear properties and minimal movement in the shaft when compared to other rope constructions. Locked coil rope guides provide a cost-effective alternative to rigid wood or metal guides by allowing for reduced shaft sizes and structures, improved air displacement on moving conveyances and minimized damage and wear caused by vibration.
