Samson K-100™ is a high-performance synthetic alternative to wire rope for crane and hoist applications. Its high-modulus fiber blend combines low weight with bend-fatigue resistance and dependable spooling.
80% lighter than wire
Samson's published weight comparison highlights easier handling during line changes.
Built for repeated bending
Armor Coating Technology™ supports performance in cyclic bending over sheaves.
No rust or lubrication
Synthetic construction eliminates wire corrosion and routine rope lubrication.

Confirm compatibility before replacing wire rope
Have a qualified person confirm rope size, terminations, drum and sheave compatibility, and the required safety factor for your equipment and application. Published rope strength does not establish a crane or hoist's rated capacity. Follow the equipment manufacturer's requirements and Samson's installation, inspection and retirement guidance. Inspect before use, protect against heat and sharp edges, avoid shock loading, and keep people clear of tensioned rope.
