Steel wire ropes are composed of steel wires, wound helically forming strands. These strands are wrapped around a core, which can be made of steel (Independent Wire Rope Core) or fiber. The number of strands used in the cable can vary depending on their intended use and properties.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT WIRE ROPE FOR YOUR APPLICATION

When choosing a rope for a specific service, it is important to consider certain conditions, including::

  • Workload resistance, setting up an appropriate safety factor 
  • Ability to operate under conditions of repeated bending without premature wire breakage
  • Resistance to wear from abrasive conditions during operation
  • Proper selection and maintenance of equipment, which is essential for the useful life of the rope.

WIRE ROPE PARTS/COMPONENTS

  • Wires: obtained by drawing the steel wire rod, passing through dies by applying an axial force.
  • Strands: They are formed by wires that can all be of the same or of different diameters, helically twisted around the core.
  • Core: It is the central axis of the cable, around which the wire strands are wound. Can be steel, natural or synthetic fiber.
  • Wire Rope: Set of helically twisted wire strands around the core
