High-strength steel bar systems for post-tensioning, stay cables, tie-backs, and structural bracing applications. Macalloy bars use cold-drawn high-strength steel with threaded end connections that enable precise tensioning and adjustment on site.
CASAR ropes support mission-critical needs across crane, mining, and demanding lifting applications.
CASAR is an abbreviation for the French term 'Câblerie Sarroise'. CASAR, today known as WireCo Germany GmbH, was founded in 1948 by Consul Joseph Verreet. Since its inception, CASAR has stood for innovative product developments, producing the first 8-strand ropes in 1949 when six-strand ropes were the standard. During the decades since, we continue to be the innovator in specialty wire ropes which is verified by our consistent growth over the decades.
We continually develop new and innovative technologies to improve our products and testing facilities. Our manufacturing operations have custom engineered monitoring systems which allow us to track the quality of production in real time. We have established and follow the industry's most comprehensive testing of products. Our quality assurance and certified manufacturing processes exceed all global standards, and our consultative approach for developing ropes ensures compliance and performance.

CASAR rope solutions serve critical applications across three core industries, with engineered wire ropes trusted on the world's most demanding crane and heavy lifting operations.

Port and container terminal cranes operate 24/7 at extreme cycle rates. WireCo delivers hoist ropes for ship-to-shore cranes, RTGs, and stacking cranes that maximize uptime and minimize unplanned rope changes in the world's busiest container ports.

Crawler and mobile cranes demand hoist ropes that deliver maximum fatigue life, breaking strength, and spooling consistency under cyclic loads. WireCo's CASAR and Union brands serve the world's leading crane manufacturers and operators with ropes engineered for the specific duty cycles of mobile, crawler, tower, and offshore cranes.
