ROPETEX S55 is a rotating-resistant steel wire rope consisting of three layers of strands and a (steel) wire strand core. As the outer layer are closed in the opposite direction of the two inner layers this rope is considered as rotating-resistant steel wire rope.

ROPETEX S55 is available from 9 to 20 mm and can be used for unguided single part lifting even with great lifting heights.

ROPETEX S55 is good to use in several crane types like tower cranes, mobile cranes, electrical hoists and all other applications where a rotation resistant wire rope is required.

If you are searching for a comparable rope in a smaller diameter, look at ROPETEX S18.
