Classification Of Wire Ropes

Dec 30, 2023

Categorized by material
1. Carbon steel wire rope is twisted from high-quality carbon structural steel wire.
2. Stainless steel wire rope, made of stainless steel wire as raw material manufacturing and twisting


Classified according to the state of the surface
1. Phosphated coated wire rope (Chinese patent), referred to as phosphated wire rope, rope making steel wire phosphate film weight 3-60 grams / square meter, after phosphating before twisting the steel wire without cold drawing processing, directly twisted strand rope, steel core and wire rope, phosphate film can improve the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the surface of the rope wire, and effectively inhibit the occurrence of fretting fatigue. Rope wire phosphating treatment, give priority to the use of manganese or zinc-manganese phosphating, no drawing processing is carried out after the wire is phosphated, and the phosphated steel wire twisted wire rope is directly used, due to the phosphating coating makes the surface of the steel wire more wear-resistant, and the phosphate film is not conductive, which can improve the anti-rust ability of the steel wire at the same time, and the service life of the phosphated wire rope is 2-3 times that of the smooth wire rope, and the fatigue resistance of the wire rope is greatly improved. [1] Phosphated wire rope is not only an ideal substitute for smooth wire rope, but also fully capable of replacing imported wire rope.
2. Galvanized steel wire rope, including hot-dip galvanizing and electro-galvanizing two methods, the protection of the galvanized layer on the steel wire belongs to anodic protection, the thicker the galvanized layer, the stronger the anti-corrosion ability
3. Plastic-coated wire rope, coated with a certain thickness of plastic on the outer surface of the wire rope or the outer surface of the strand rope, including polyethylene, polypropylene, polyurethane, etc
4. Smooth wire rope, rope-making wire obtained after heat treatment and surface preparation of raw materials (note: the phosphate film formed in the pretreatment process gradually falls off with the drawing die during the cold drawing process), the steel wire is no longer directly twisted stranded rope, steel core and wire rope after any surface treatment, foreign production began in 1834, and domestic Tianjin No. 1 wire rope factory began production in 1939.


Classification according to the twisting method
Single-ply rope
Also known as single twist rope, it is made of rope-making steel wire twisted around a central wire or hemp core, and can be twisted into one or more layers of steel wire.
Double twisted rope
It is made by twisting a double-strand rope around a rope core (steel core or fiber core), which can twist one or more layers of steel wire, and is the most widely used variety of wire rope.
Three twisted ropes
The double-twisted rope is twisted around the core of the rope as a strand rope, and is mainly used for thick gauge wire ropes with a diameter of more than 60mm, such as offshore wire ropes
The wire rope twisting method is marked as follows:
A right cross twist SZ: the right twist of the rope, the left twist of the strand, the twist direction of the strand rope is opposite to the twist direction of the steel wire in the strand, which is called the alternating twist
B Left alternate twist ZS: rope left twist, strand right twist
C right twist ZZ: right twist of rope, right twist of strand
D left twist in the same direction: left twist of rope, left twist of strand
E right mixed twist: right twist of rope, left twist of part of the strand, right twist of part of the strand
F Left mixed twist: rope left twist, part of the strand right twist, part of the strand left twist
