Wire ropes are used extensively in the construction and manufacturing sectors to lift heavy loads. They help in transmitting power from one pulley to another. Good quality wire ropes can tolerate high temperatures, are strong and durable. Wire ropes are made from high carbon stainless steel.

Let us look at some applications of wire ropes. Good quality wire ropes are used in lifting and rigging, manufacturing, mining, shipping and construction industries. Wire rope slings connect the load to the lifting device and designs can differ as per the use, i.e. where it has to be applied.The different designs include single and multi-part slings, multiple leg bridles, grommets, single leg slings and a varied range of the fittings as well.

They are designed to have wire strands around a central core. They cannot be used in temperatures below 40 degree (F).

Let us also have a look at some benefits of wire ropes.

  • Flexibility, strength in design
  • Resistance to abrasion, crushing, corrosion, fatigue and rotation.
  • Wire ropes can lift heavier loads when compared to other lifting equipment.
  • High carbon steel that is used to fabricate the wire ropes ensures that the weight is equitably distributed across all strands.
  • If they are inspected regularly, their durability and strength are enhanced.
  • It does seem from all of the above that having good quality wire ropes is very essential. They cannot be of lesser quality as then the safety of life and property can be compromised.
