SWR specialise in the supply of high quality wire rope for industrial door applications. The majority of industrial doors in the UK use 3mm – 6mm 7X19 construction galvanised wire rope. Our wire rope stock is produced at ISO9001 approved manufacturers and fully supported by test certificates.
The industrial door wire rope assemblies will typically have a crimp at one end for locating to the cable drum and might require a thimble eye crimping to the other end for attachment to the roller spindle assembly. Everything you need is available here.
We can even produce the assembly for you - specific to your requirements, as well as offering a range of pre-assembled cables for onsite installation.
Whilst we produce assemblies in all diameters and constructions, below are some of the more popular standard products readily available.
