Description

Wire rope is a spiral wire bundle formed by a number of steel wires twisted together according to specific rules. It is mainly used to meet certain mechanical properties and geometric size requirements. This structure makes the wire rope has the characteristics of high strength, light weight and good flexibility, so it has been widely used in many fields.

Wire rope is mainly composed of three parts: steel wire, rope core and grease. Among them, the steel wire is the basic unit of the wire rope, according to the use of different needs, you can choose different types (such as carbon steel or stainless steel) and specifications of steel wire to make. These wires are tightly bound together by a specific braid to form a strong and durable rope. The core is located in the center of the wire rope, usually made of natural fibers or synthetic materials, and its main role is to increase the overall softness of the wire rope and help reduce internal friction, thereby extending the service life. Grease is filled between the wire rope and the external contact surface to reduce the wear rate and prevent rust corrosion.

Due to its excellent physical properties, wire rope is widely used in material handling machinery, such as cranes, winches and other equipment, used to achieve heavy lifting, moving or fixing functions; It is also commonly used in shipbuilding, bridge construction and other industries as one of the important components of traction transfer. In addition, steel wire rope can also be seen in mining, forestry and other fields, playing an indispensable role. In short, whether it is industrial production or daily life, wire rope plays an extremely important role.
