The 6X19 class wire rope is known for flexibility as well as durability against abrasion. Independent wire rope core (IWRC) ropes have superior strength and crush resistance over fiber core wire ropes, but offer less flexibility.  6x19 Class wire rope is the most widely used for applications which demand a robust and abrasion resistant wire rope such a winch lines, slings, suspension cables, boom pendants, drill lines and chokers.

6X19 (often referred to as 6X25) rope has six strands with 16 to 26 wires per strand. Wire ropes with a greater number of individual wires (6X37) provide more flexibility and fatigue resistance while ropes with fewer wires (6X19) provide greater abrasion resistance, less flexibility, and more "stiffness".
