Anti Twist Wire Rope for Stable Lifting of Long and Asymmetrical Loads
Anti twist wire rope is made for lifts where a standard wire rope would spin. Its braided, torque-balanced construction keeps a suspended load from rotating, so long or asymmetrical items such as transmission tower sections, steel beams and conductor reels stay under control. This range covers diameters from 9mm to 42mm in 12-strand and 18-strand construction, with minimum breaking forces from 54KN to 817KN.
Why Torque-Balanced Rope Matters
- Stops load spin: the braided strands counter the rotation that builds up in ordinary wire rope.
- Holds load orientation: helps place heavy components accurately without fighting the load.
- Suits long and asymmetrical lifts: transmission tower sections, steel beams and conductor reels.
- Reduces hardware wear: less twisting fatigue on sheaves, blocks and hooks.
- Works in multi-sheave systems: predictable behaviour without managing built-up torque.
- Good flexibility: easier to handle on site than stiff rotation-resistant ropes.

Material and Construction
- High-carbon steel wire for strength and fatigue resistance
- Braided, torque-balanced 12-strand and 18-strand construction
- Protective coating options for outdoor and marine exposure
Quality Control and Testing
Rope is braided from high-carbon steel wire and inspected strand by strand during production. Minimum breaking force is checked against the specification for each diameter before a batch is released, and products are made under ISO 9001 certified quality management with a test record supplied with every shipment.
Typical Applications
- Overhead transmission line construction
- Substation equipment and transformer lifting
- Steel structure and tower section rigging
- Multi-sheave block and tackle systems
- General heavy hoisting and pulling
Factory Support and Buyer Assurance
- Manufacturer-direct pricing with no trading-layer mark-up
- OEM and ODM available with custom diameters, lengths, coatings and terminations
- Technical support for rope selection and load matching
- Matching rigging hardware available
- 12-month limited warranty
