WIRE ROPE
We are India's oldest USHA MARTIN LTD associate and distributor. Offering you the best Wire Ropes in the world.
​
E. E. Karachiwala & Co. have specialised in supplying multi stranded ungalvanised and galvanised steel wire rope since 1911. We stock from 0.5mm up to 103mm in various constructions including 1X19, 7X7,6X19, 7X19, 6X36, 8X19, 8X26, 18x7, 19X7 and 35X7 with both Fibre Core and Steel Cores. In addition to these conventional steel wire ropes we can offer special wire ropes from high quality manufacturers.
Most wire ropes operate in demanding conditions and must resist crushing, bending fatigue and abrasion. We recognise that it is vital that all of our wire ropes need to perform to the highest levels to maximise service life therefore increasing productivity for the end user. With our technical experience we have worked hard with our partners to ensure that all material is manufactured to the very best standards in the steel wire rope industry.
Each steel wire rope can be supplied fully assembled complete with end terminals such as a thimble eyes, swaged ends and wedge sockets as well as many other solutions. These cable assemblies are manufactured in house by our team of engineers complete to your specifications.
All material is certified and has full traceability in line with our ISO9001 procedures.

6x19 construction wire rope is available with either FC (fibre core) or WSC (wire strand core). When supplied with a wsc the rope is more commonly referred to as 7x19. The rope is very popular in diameters from 3mm to 16mm and is used on a variety of applications. 6x19 FC and 6x19 WSC (7x19) is very flexible in diameters 3mm to 6mm and is used for many requirements where wire ropes are running over pulleys.

6x36 is a flexible general engineering wire rope readily available in galvanised and ungalvanised coatings. The wire rope has an equal lay construction (warrington seale) and achieves a superior breaking load to the 6x19 construction range. The construction has been designed to give a flexible rope with a good fatigue life. A 6x36 wire rope is available with either FC (fibre core) or IWRC (independent wire rope core) and is used for a wide range of applications, examples of which are shown below:
• Wire rope slings
• General engineering applications
• Crane ropes
• Hoist rope
• Winch ropes
• Holding and closing ropes for grab cranes
• Tow ropes
• Luffing ropes
• Pursing wires
• Mooring ropes
• Lifeboat falls
• Wire rope rigging applications
Superior Elevator & Lift Application Wire Ropes, with multiple Tensile designations & Core types. Used by OEM's and by Maintenance and Repair customers.
