About Southwest Wire Rope Inc
Southwest Wire Rope Inc was founded in 1966 in New Iberia, Louisiana, to address demand for reliable wire rope and rigging products from industries along the Gulf Coast. The company began as a supplier of wire rope and related hardware, expanding its product line over the decades to serve diversified markets worldwide. The company operates three full-service locations in Texas and Louisiana, stocking a complete range of lifting products including wire rope slings, nylon slings, round slings, chain, shackles, thimbles, sockets, and other hardware. Beyond distribution, Southwest Wire Rope provides engineering services such as engineered lifting device design, lift planning, and load testing up to 1.5 million pounds. Its fabrication shop produces below-the-hook lifting devices—spreader bars, spreader beams, lifting beams, lifting frames, padeyes, reel lifters, and custom assemblies—designed to ASME B30.20 and BTH-1 standards. Additional services include field spooling of wire and synthetic rope (under the Haynes Wire Rope trade name), on-site rigging gear inspections using Tessalink software, and lifting gear rentals. The company differentiates itself through its ISO 9001:2015 quality management system certified by DNV, the proprietary Gold Strand wire rope trademark introduced in 1983, and in-house testing capabilities calibrated to ASTM E4. Engineering expertise is backed by professional engineers who perform structural calculations using Mathcad, SolidWorks, and ANSYS finite element analysis, validated by proof load testing.
