Product FAQ

What surface finish and tensile strength does this steel wire rope have?
This steel wire rope has a Galvanized and is manufactured with a tensile strength of 1960 N/mm².The galvanized coating provides corrosion protection through a zinc layer, making the rope suitable for outdoor use and humid operating conditions.
Does this steel wire rope have any special design or performance features?
This steel wire rope is compacted, resulting in a smoother surface, higher breaking load, and improved wear resistance compared to standard wire rope constructions. This steel wire rope features internal plastic filling, which improves lubrication retention, reduces internal wire friction, and enhances service life under dynamic loading conditions.
What is the construction, core type, and lay of this steel wire rope?
This steel wire rope is constructed with 8 strands. It is manufactured with a steel core, offering higher structural stability, improved resistance to crushing, and reliable performance under heavy loads and multi-layer winding conditions. It is manufactured with an ordinary right-hand lay (sZ), providing a balanced combination of flexibility, wear resistance, and stable handling. This is the most commonly used lay for general It is manufactured with an ordinary left-hand lay (zS), offering similar performance characteristics to right-hand ordinary lay but designed for specific directional or equipment requirement
