With hoisting rates and payloads steadily rising and the wish for ever-growing longevity, the requirements put on the quality of steel wire ropes have become extraordinarily high. Here’s Teufelberger-Redaelli’s answer to these challenges:

  • Exclusive use of high grade materials
  • Use of state-of-the-art production technologies
  • Close cooperation with our customers
  • Intensive work performed by our Research & Development department
  • Continuous quality control (ISO 9001), as well as
  • Close cooperation with manufacturers of hoisting installations


Teufelberger-Redaelli offers a wide range of hoist ropes for ground and tower mounted friction winder hoists (koepe hoists).G The most important aspect beside safety is economic efficiency and hence the right choice of rope for the given conditions. What has to be considered, in addition to the required minimum breaking force and the specific weight of the rope, is the friction hoist -specific mechanism causing damage to the rope. Such mechanisms are associated with the following types of damage:

  • Wire breakage due to bending fatigue
  • Wire breakage due to torsional fatigue
  • Corrosion caused by external influences such as humidity, salts, and other corrosive substances


The decision as to which hoist rope from Teufelberger-Redaelli is the best choice for your application and your specific conditions should always be made in consultation with our specialists. Moreover, in many cases it’s a good idea to have the hoisting system surveyed so that the hoist rope can be exactly adapted.. Such surveying work is performed by our own application engineers on site.
Of course, Teufelberger-Redaelli hoist ropes can be delivered with various wire coatings, depending on your requirements. Moreover, the ropes can be provided with rope end terminations.
