High Performance Wire Ropes
The skyrocketing demand for higher breaking strength, greater flexibility, better rotation resistance, and extended rope life that surpassed the limitations of general purpose rope constructions led to the development of high performance steel wire rope. This has been achieved through adaptation of engineered rope geometry and purpose designed manufacturing processes. The result has been a significantly improved operating life. Teufelberger®, based in Austria, is one of the leading manufacturers of such high-performance wire rope.

Wire Rope Swagers
The very qualities that make steel wire rope difficult to cut also make it difficult to mould and compress, so wire rope swagers were developed for that purpose. These tools come in the single and multi cavity varieties and are designed with snap action jaws, made of fully-hardened steel, to ensure a tight, firm compression. Newco® Manufacturing is a leading producer of wire rope swagers.
