Ropes

Cable (rope) - is a fastening product made in the form of twisted fibers from various materials. Steel cables, which have a huge number of designs and types, are considered the strongest. They are used in loading and unloading operations in various spheres of human activity - mechanical engineering, freight transportation, mining and many others.

Types of ropes

Steel rope consists of a certain number of round wires, which are twisted in different ways. Depending on the number of steel fibers, the way they are twisted and other technical characteristics, steel cables are classified into several groups.

By design, steel ropes are divided into:

• single;
• double;
• triple

According to the method of twisting the fibers, steel cables can be divided into:

• untwisting;
• not spinners.

According to the material for the manufacture of the core:

• with a metal core;
• with an organic core.

According to the degree of static:

• spin;
• spin a little;
• static

There are about ten more of their subspecies according to other parameters.

Materials for making ropes

Steel rope is made of different grades of steel. This is due to what purpose the cable will have, and what functional loads it will need to withstand. As a rule, the material for making steel rope is hot-rolled steel.

In addition, the cables are covered with an additional coating, therefore, among the products presented on the market, galvanized cable and stainless cable are quite common. These ropes are used during operation in conditions of an aggressive external environment, under increased loads and significant abrasive wear.

A sufficient number of standards and regulations, in which you can read in more detail about the characteristics of each type of rope, as well as recommendations for their use. Therefore, if you decide to buy a steel rope, it will not be superfluous to familiarize yourself with these instructions.
