Stainless steel wire rope

With a stainless steel wire ropes (or stainless steel cable) supplied by Mennens, you can avoid corrosion. When chromium (one of the metals that make up the steel) comes into contact with oxygen, an oxide skin is formed: an invisible layer that protects the underlying material from oxidation.

Stainless steel wire ropes are used for specific situations in industry, but they are especially well suited for architectural applications. Stainless steel cables are processed not only as tension cables (with various end connections) or in balustrades and railings, but also in stainless steel cable netting.

As with standard wire ropes, stainless steel wireropes are available in different constructions and with different end fittings. Standard stainless steel wirerope is available in grade AIS316 (EN 1.4401) which is more resistant to salt corrosion. All stainless steel wireropes are finished in our own workshops.
