Conductor & Coated Ropes
Copper-cored, plastic-coated and otherwise particular.
Beyond plain steel: the specialist lines we hold include PAWO F4E copper-core electrical conductor rope, OEM plastic-coated rope (Orona pattern) and a rolling stock of special wire ropes — the constructions that solve particular problems on particular platforms.
Stock position
F4E, Orona coated and special wire rope all physically stocked; rarities sourced with manufacturer support.

Breaking forces and full mechanical properties are stated on the certificate issued with each rope — supplied against the applicable standard, never quoted generically.
Some duties want more than steel. Conductor ropes put a copper heart inside the strand package to carry signal or bonding continuity; coated ropes jacket the steel for quiet running and sheave kindness on the platforms designed around them; and "special" covers the long tail of constructions the industry occasionally needs and rarely finds in stock.
We hold all three from stock — F4E copper-core, Orona plastic-coated (2,700+ metres), and 10,000+ metres of special wire rope — with sourcing support for anything rarer.

Can you identify a special rope from a sample?
Usually — construction, lay, core and coating can be established from a short sample, and a compliant equivalent supplied certified. It is a routine technical-services request.
