Abstract
A wire rope is provided having a central core strand about which are wound outer strands. Non-linear spacer wires are present in the gaps between outer strands to assure the uniformity of such gaps and provide passageways from the interior to the exterior of the wire rope. A coating, usually of a suitable thermoplastic, is extruded into such rope to extend continuously from the core and between adjacent outer strands and through the passageways.
