YS STEEL has its own factories and can provide you with high-quality Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel Wire Rope. We use high-quality high-carbon steel wire rods and manufacture them through multiple passes of drawing, twisting and hot-dip galvanizing processes. The hot-dip zinc coating has good adhesion and uniform thickness, providing reliable surface anti-corrosion protection. We offer customization services, including fixed-length cutting, end pressing and special packaging.
Our Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel Wire Rope offers two types: fiber core (FC) and independent steel wire rope core
(IWRC),
covering common specifications such as 6×7, 6×19, 6×37, 7×7, 7×19 and 18×7. Production strictly follows the
standards of
GB/T 20118, ISO 2408, EN 12385 and ASTM A1007.
This wire rope has high strength, excellent impact resistance, wear resistance and good toughness, and is widely used
in
lifting and transporting, mining operations, cable car traction, tower cranes, bridge reinforcement, port handling,
agricultural binding and outdoor engineering, etc.

Why This Wire Rope?
1. Hot-Dip Zinc Coating with Metallurgical Bond
Hot-dip galvanizing forms a metallurgical bond between the zinc layer and the steel substrate, so the coating resists
impact peeling rather than sitting on the surface. The zinc layer is thicker than electro-galvanized rope, which
slows
rusting under outdoor moisture and rain in general open-air engineering.
2. Breaking Load and Crush Resistance
We strand high-carbon steel wire to a tight, uniform arrangement, which holds certified breaking load. The rope
resists
impact and crushing under frequent heavy-duty and shock-loading conditions, covering lifting, mining and tower crane
applications.
3. Wear and Bending Fatigue
Our stranding process distributes stress evenly across the wires. Wear resistance and bending fatigue performance
reduce
wire-break risk under repeated sheave and drum movement, which extends service life on continuous construction and
hoisting equipment.
4. FC and IWRC Core Options
FC fibre core gives flexibility and cushioning for sheave-frequent bending. IWRC steel core gives higher strength,
crush
resistance and temperature tolerance. Multiple constructions, diameters and strength grades are available for
hoisting,
cableway, binding and fixing applications.
5. Cost Position Against Stainless Steel Rope
Compared with stainless steel wire rope, hot-dip galvanized rope costs less. It performs well in environments without
heavy salt spray or strong acid-base exposure, which suits bulk purchasing in mining, infrastructure, port and
logistics
projects where material cost is controlled.
6. Batch Inspection and Export Documents
Each batch is inspected for breaking load, zinc coating thickness and dimensional accuracy. Material certificates and
factory test reports ship with every order. SGS and BV third-party inspections are supported. English export
documents
meet overseas project acceptance and customs clearance requirements.
Application Scenarios
1. Hoisting & Lifting
General outdoor lifting, tower crane rigging, construction elevator ropes, and trailer towing.
2. Mining Operations
Mine hoisting and traction systems, and open-pit mining equipment rigging.
3. Port & Logistics
Port terminal handling, cargo binding, freight cableways, and logistics equipment rigging.
4. Construction & Infrastructure
Construction machinery matching, temporary steel-structure bracing, and temporary bridge reinforcement.
5. Water Conservancy & Agriculture
Water conservancy project rigging and agricultural binding applications.
6. Trade & Distribution
Bulk supply for engineering contractors, equipment manufacturers, and rigging distributors requiring export
documentation.
Successful Cases
Central Asia Mining Infrastructure Project (2025): 420 tons of 6×37-IWRC hot-dip galvanized wire rope were supplied
for a
large open-pit mine in Central Asia, applied for mine hoisting and traction systems. Grade-C heavy zinc coating was
adopted for open-air humid mining conditions. All-batch breaking-load indexes passed on-site third-party testing,
and an
annual framework supply agreement was signed.
• Southeast Asia Construction Tower-Crane Supporting Project (2025): 330 tons of 6×19 & 7×19
hot-dip galvanized wire rope were delivered in bulk to Southeast-Asian construction-equipment manufacturers as
rigging
for tower cranes and construction elevators. Stable dimensional tolerance and good fatigue-resistance adapt to
high-frequency cyclic equipment operation. Business developed from trial orders to long-term stable supply.
• Middle-East Port & Logistics Project (2024): 290 tons of multi-size hot-dip galvanized wire
rope
were provided for Middle-East port-logistics enterprises for terminal handling, cargo binding and trailer towing.
Export-oriented packing fits ocean-transport conditions with full-set export documents. Full-container delivery was
completed, followed by repeated bulk re-orders after customs clearance.
FAQ
Q1: What is the main difference between hot-dip galvanized and electro-galvanized wire rope?
A: Hot-dip galvanizing forms metallurgical bonding with thick, well-adhered zinc layer for superior anti-corrosion
performance. Electro-galvanizing delivers thin coating and is mainly for indoor dry conditions. Hot-dip galvanized
rope
is preferred for outdoor open-air projects.
Q2: How to choose between FC fibre core and IWRC steel core?
A: FC fibre core provides good flexibility and oil-storage space for sheave-frequent bending. IWRC steel core
achieves
higher breaking load, crush resistance and temperature tolerance for heavy-load, squeezing and high-temperature
scenarios
with relatively lower flexibility.
Q3: Can hot-dip galvanized wire rope be used in coastal heavy salt-spray environments?
A: Standard hot-dip galvanized rope suits mild-corrosion environments only. Zinc layer will degrade rapidly under
heavy
coastal salt spray; 304 / 316 stainless-steel wire rope is recommended. If hot-dip galvanized must be used, select
Grade-C
heavy coating and perform regular maintenance.
Q4: Are custom cutting, end processing and non-standard sizes available?
A: Yes. Ropes can be cut to any required length. End-swaging and anti-rust oil-dipping services are available.
Certain
non-standard diameters can be produced; special sizes beyond equipment capacity require technical evaluation.
Q5: About certificates, lead time and warranty scope?
A: Material certificates and factory test reports are provided per batch; SGS / BV third-party inspection is
supported.
Standard sizes are in-stock with small-order lead-time of 3-7 working days; bulk orders follow production schedule.
Warranty covers raw-material and manufacturing defects; artificial wear and overload damage are excluded.
