Our forestry ropes: Quality at great prices

For use in forestry and agriculture: Jakob Rope Systems forestry ropes impress with their high load capacity, optimal performance, and long service life. Precisely configured ex works and reliable in continuous use.

 

Jakob Rope Systems forestry ropes are designed for high tensile forces in continuous operation. They offer constant performance, high load capacity, and long service life, even under the toughest operating conditions. The ropes and end connections are tailored precisely to different applications, and thus contribute to safe and economical use.

The well-thought-out construction reduces downtime, maintenance requirements and overall operating costs. These forestry ropes fulfill the technical requirements of professional users in forestry and agriculture when it comes to reliability and operational safety.

 

For high tensile forces and safety
Our forestry ropes are designed for high tensile forces, even during continuous operation. They comply with standards and can be used reliably and safely in forestry and agriculture. The compacted wire rope construction guarantees very high breaking loads, smooth operation in ground traction, and maximizes operational safety even under extreme conditions.

 

Optimized coiling and winding behaviour
The warp-resistant rope structures reduce wear on drums and pulleys and prevent twisting and crushing during winding. The high-strength steel wires provide long service life and trouble-free, productive use in forestry and agricultural applications.

 

Precise configuration ex works
The wide range of different rope designs, diameters, lengths, and end connectors allows for precise design and customization for applications and individual use profiles in forestry and agriculture.
