General Information

Cores for wire ropes

Steel

IWRC (Independent Wire Rope Core)
The main core is an independent wire rope, normally having the construction 7 x 7.

WSC (Wire Strand Core)
The main core is an independent wire strand, normally having the same construction as the outer strands of the rope.

Fiber
Fiber cores are standard and comprise of natural fibres such as sisal, hemp, jute, and cotton. Synthetic fibres such as polyamide, polyethylene, and polypropylene. Asbestos fibres (heat resistant).

1 Preformed Ropes

In the performing process the wires and strands are given their final helical pitch before being laid up into rope. Ropes made in this way show no tendency to untwist when cut

2 Post formed Ropes
The Rope shall be uniformly made. Free from defects. When uncoiled under no load the rope shall not be wavy.

Lubrication
Lubrication reduces internal friction of the wires and strands and protects against corrosion. Grease is applied to all ropes supplied. If special lubricants are required this must be specifically stated at time of ordering

Diameter of wire ropes
The diameter of a wire rope is the diameter of the circle which encloses all of the wires. When measuring wire rope it is important to take the greatest distance of the outer limits of the “Crowns” of two opposite strands. A measurement across the valleys will result in incorrect lower readings
