Key features

  • Various diameters: choose the cable size that matches your manure scraper or livestock housing system.
  • Protective coating: plastic-coated versions have a protective plastic layer around the steel wire rope.
  • For intensive use: suitable for applications in which the cable is moved and loaded regularly.
  • Multiple reel lengths: choose a length that suits the dimensions and layout of your system.
  • Agricultural applications: intended for manure scrapers and similar pulling and guiding systems.

Which manure scraper cable do you need?

The correct manure scraper cable depends on your system. Pay particular attention to the cable diameter, the outside diameter including any coating, and the required length. When replacing a cable in an existing system, use the same specifications as the cable being replaced whenever possible.

Also check whether the selected cable is suitable for the cable guides, drums, pulleys and attachment points in your system. This prevents a cable with the wrong diameter from being installed.

Steel wire rope for manure scrapers

Manure scrapers are commonly used to move manure automatically through livestock buildings. The cable provides the pulling movement for the system and is repeatedly loaded and guided during operation. It is therefore important to select a manure scraper cable with dimensions and a construction that match the specific scraper system.

Plastic-coated manure scraper cable

A plastic-coated manure scraper cable consists of a steel wire rope surrounded by a plastic coating. This coating forms an additional layer around the cable and prevents direct contact between the steel and its surroundings. The required diameter and construction depend on your system.

What are manure scraper cables used for?

Manure scraper cables are mainly used in agricultural systems, such as manure scrapers and other equipment in which a cable performs a pulling or guiding function. The exact application varies by cable type. Always check the technical specifications on the relevant product page.

Frequently asked questions

Which manure scraper cable do I need?

This depends on your manure scraper or livestock housing system. Check the specified cable diameter, construction and required length. When replacing a cable, you can generally use the specifications of the existing cable as your starting point.

What is the difference between the various manure scraper cables?

Manure scraper cables can differ in cable diameter, outside diameter, coating and reel length. These properties determine which cable is suitable for a particular system. Check the technical specifications on each product page.

Which cable diameter should I choose?

Choose the diameter specified by the manufacturer of your system or a size that matches the existing cable. For plastic-coated cables, comparing only the outside diameter is not always sufficient.

Why are manure scraper cables plastic-coated?

A plastic-coated manure scraper cable has a plastic layer around the steel wire rope. This layer prevents direct contact between the steel and its surroundings and provides a smooth outer surface.

What cable length do I need?

The required cable length depends on the dimensions and layout of your system. When replacing a cable, measure the existing cable or consult the technical specifications of the manure scraper. Also consider how the cable is routed through the system.

What should I check when replacing a manure scraper cable?

Check the diameter, construction and length of the existing cable. Before installing a new cable, also inspect the condition of the cable guides, pulleys and attachment points.
