8XK26WS-EPIWRC Inner Plastified Wire ropes Compacted strands and it is primarily utilized as luffing wire rope on high efficiency ship and harbor mobile cranes, container bridge cranes, overhead traveling hoists, and mineral loading cranes.
8-strand construction, with flexible advantage, suitable for use on many crane brands installed on board. These wire ropes are often drawn galvanized and oiled both internally and externally, making them corrosion resistant and durable in the severe sea environment.
Furthermore, these ropes are made with an extruded inner plastic layer, which ensures water impermeability and elimination of point contact between wires & strands of the inner and outer layers.
Increasing the useful service life of the ropes because extra protection from corrosion and inner contact
Attention must be paid in the installation of the new rope on board, its running-in (bedding in) period and load and the inspection before and after every usage.
Diligent manufacturing techniques, raw material selection, and quality control at all stages of production assure a long and trouble-free service life.
Minimized the size due to the compacting technology,while increasing the breaking strength. Please learn more about the advantages of compacted wire ropes.
Main advantages flexible 8--strand ordinary lay or Lang's lay rope with inner plastification, suited best as luffing rope. Long service life due to inner plastification and reduced rope abrasion, resulting from the smooth rope surface, also exhibiting excellent flexural fatigue properties Resistance against corrosion due to galvanized wires the permanent lubrication and inner plastification Reliability and safety in operation as a result of the highest breaking forces, especially provided by the compaction technology Exceptional resistance against shock loads and vibrations due to the radial- elastic structured rope and inner plastification Optimal spooling characteristics due to high resistance against radial deformations Reduced maintenance effort due to intensive lubrication in each production step
Various wire rope constructions are available with a plastic coating applied to the exterior of the rope. Small diameter galvanized and stainless steel wire ropes with plastic coating are common. The plastic coating can provide protection against corrosion and in some cases reduce wear of the rope and other rigging components. Plastic coated ropes can be difficult to inspect. Nominal strengths for plastic coated ropes are based on the diameter and grade of the rope prior to coating.
Plastic filled wire ropes are wire ropes in which internal spaces are filled with a matrix of plastic. The plastic extends to, or slightly beyond, the outer circumference of the rope. Plastic filling may improve bending fatigue life by reducing internal and external wear. Nominal strengths for plastic filled ropes are based on the diameter and grade of the rope prior to plastic filling. Plastic Coated IWRC Wire Rope Plastic coated IWRC wire rope is wire rope which incorporates a plastic coated or plastic filled IWRC. The plastic coated or plastic filled IWRC reduces internal wear and may increase bending fatigue life. Nominal strengths for plastic coated and plastic filled ropes are based on the diameter and grade of the rope with an uncoated or unfilled IWRC.
