How to choose steel wire rope

Shopping skills

1. Specific gravity. The diameter of steel wire rope is the same, and the heavier the specific gravity, the better the quality of steel wire rope;

2. Steel wire rope core. The stronger the wire rope core is, the heavier the specific gravity is, the better the supporting force to the outer strand of the wire rope is, and the better the quality of the wire rope is;

3. Materials. Material is steel grade and strength. The higher the steel grade, the better the quality of the steel wire rope with higher strength;

4. After the rope is cut, the slightly loose quality is good, and the steel wire rope with relatively long lay distance is better than that with short lay distance;

5. The corrosion resistance of 316 stainless steel wire rope is stronger than that of 306 stainless steel wire rope, 306 is stronger than that of hot-dip galvanized wire rope, and the quality of hot-dip galvanized wire rope is better than that of electro galvanized wire rope; The quality of nylon plastic coated steel wire rope is stronger than that of PE plastic coated steel wire rope. The quality of PE plastic coated steel wire rope is better than that of PVC plastic coated steel wire rope, and the corrosion resistance of plastic coated steel wire rope is stronger than that of galvanized steel wire rope.
