Wire Rope
A wire rope is a type of rope made from several strands of metal wire twisted or braided together to form a flexible and strong structure. It's commonly used in various applications where high strength and durability are required, such as in construction, mining, marine operations, and lifting heavy loads. Wire ropes are designed to withstand heavy tension and can be made from different materials including steel, stainless steel, and other alloys depending on the specific requirements of the application. They are crucial in providing reliable support and safety in many industrial and commercial settings.
Typical information that required to select wire ropes includes the following:
Length of wire rope. For example, 20 meter.
Nominal diameter of the wire rope. For example, 76mm.
Construction of the wire rope. For example, 6X36
Core of the wire rope. For example, IWRC, FC, WSC
Plastic Impregnated Core
Direction and lay of the wire rope, including For example,
RHRL (Right Hand Regular Lay, sZ)
RHLL (Right Hand Langs Lay, zZ),
LHRL (Left Hand Regular Lay, zS)
LHLL (Left Hand Langs Lay, sS)
RHAL (Right Hand Alternate Lay, aZ)
LHAL (Left Hand Alternate Lay, aS)
Wire rope finish: Bright, Ungalvanised, Galvanised
Wire rope grade: 1770, 1960, 2160
Minimum breaking load of the wire rope For example, 75kN.
