What types port wire rope

Port is a common used for wire rope hoisting of the important tools such as ship, goods. It is compounded by some of the steel wire rope, in addition, can also according to the specific job requirements manufacturing different kinds of steel wire rope, to adapt to different working conditions and load, here are several common types of wire rope.

1. Smooth steel wire rope

Smooth steel wire, also known as flat steel wire rope, it is one of the most common type of wire rope. It is composed of multiple (usually 6 shares or stereotype) woven rope, smooth surface, using a wide range. Smooth surface are suitable for all kinds of different forms of hoisting wire rope and traction, such as ship's hoisting, bridge construction, etc.

2. The rotating wire rope

Rotating wire, also called spinning rope, wire rope is used for low speed under overloading or the need to resist the torque of the workplace and design of a wire rope. The outer layer is composed of flat steel wire rope, wire rope rotating center is composed of a layer of counter-rotating wire rope. This design makes the rotating torque of wire rope can be controlled, safer to use and more effective.

3. The twisted wire rope

Partnership is formed by multiple wire twisted rope, each strand are the same, the number of steel wire rope between the outer layer is covered with a layer of plastic material. Twisted wire rope bridge bracket, cable, hook, hoisting and the Netherlands etc are common application scenario.

4. Galvanized steel wire rope

Galvanized steel wire rope is the surface of steel wire made of thermoelectric galvanized processing, the processing can be to prevent the corrosion of water vapor and oxygen in the air of wire rope. Because of anticorrosive, waterproof, respect the characteristics of small, galvanized steel wire rope is widely used in shipbuilding, construction steel, electric power transmission lines, etc.

5. Portable stranding wire rope

Portable stranding wire rope is a kind of used for lifting cargo application scenarios such as wire rope. It is made up of many strands of steel strand. The cable is more flexible, lifting will not lead to instability.

6. High twist wire rope

High twist wire rope is composed of multi-strand wire, each wire by high speed rotating twist. High due to the less number of steel stranded wire, twist wire rope has certain flexibility, but its bearing capacity is weak, so is often used for low load cases, such as the hoisting over short distances.

In a word, the above several kinds of common port type wire rope are introduced, different port working environment and requirements have different wire rope. In the actual production and work, need to consider many factors, such as load and using the environment and conditions of use, etc., choose the most suitable range of wire rope in order to improve its working efficiency and safety.
