GENERAL INFOMATION ON WIRE ROPE 

for SELECTION & USAGE 

1.DIAMETER 

The diameter of rope is the diameter of its circumference, circumscribed to its normal section. This diameter is given in 

millimeters. 

1) PRACTICAL DIAMETER OF WIRE ROPE 

The practical diameter of a rope is measured by following an established method, its value must be equal to the value 

of the nominal diameter (the dimension by which a rope is identified) except for certain allowed tolerances. 

2) HOW TO DETERMINE THE PRACTICAL DIAMETER 

Measurements are taken at two points at least one meter apart and two diameters are measured at 90° one from the 

other. The average of the four values thus obtained is the practical diameter. Usually the practical diameter is taken 

from a sample of straight rope not subjected to traction. In special cases when the tolerance is less than 5% of the 

minimum guaranteed breaking strength. 

The correct diameter is the greatest diameter of the rope or strand. 

correct 

wrong 

2. CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGNATION 

The strand is the simplest construction: it consists of one or more layers of superimposed wires laid spirally around one 

or more central wires or around a fibre core. The construction of the strand is identified by the number of wires in the 

individual layers, starting from the outer one(e.g. 12+6+1 or 15+9+FC). 

FC indicates a fibre core. Distinction is made between strands with cross laid and equal laid wires. 

1) STRANDS WITH CROSS LAID WIRES 

All the wires in this type of strand are of equal diameter and for geometrical reasons the number of wires decreases in 

each layer, starting from the outermost one, according to an arithmetical progression based on number (18 + 12 + 6 + 1 

or 12 + 6). In cross laid constructions each layer of wire is laid up a separate operation with a different length of lay, 

the result being the crossing of the various layers of wires. Consequently strong pressure occurs between the wires 

which may break, especially with variable loads. 

2) STRANDS WITH EQUAL LAID WIRES 

In these constructions the pitches of the various layers of wires are identical as stranding is carried out in a single 

operation; therefore, the contacts between wires are lindar. Seale, Warrington and Filler strands belong to this 

construction. Wires of different diameters are required for these constructions. 

As for example: 

Seale : 9 + 9 + 1 

Warrington : 6/6 + 6 + 1 

Filler : 12 + 6F + 6 + 1 

Steel Wire Rope | 05

SINGLE STRAND ROPES are commonly called strands. 

ROUND STRANDED ROPES consist of a number of strands either laid around a fibre core or metallic strand or an 

independent wire rope core. They can be identified by the number to each strand. 

A rope with 6 strands, each having 9+9+1wires laid around a central fibre core is designated as; 6 x (9 + 9 + 1) + FC 

or more concisely 6 x 19 Seale + FC. If this same rope has an independent wire rope core, the designation will be: 

6 x (9 + 9 + 1) + IWRC. 

The IWRC is a metallic rope having for example a construction designated by 7 x (6 + 1) or 7 x 7. Should the strands 

also contain a fibre core then the rope will be known for example as 6 x (12 + FC) + FC or 6 x 12 + 7FC. 

Lastly if the rope is formed of two or more layers of strands superimposed around a FC, then it will be known as: 

12 x (6 + 1) + 6 x (6 + 1) + FC or 18 x 7 + FC. 

3. TYPE OF LAY 

As already stated, round stranded ropes have both the strands and the wires in the strands laid helically. 

Should the lay of the outer wires in the strands be in the same direction or in the opposite direction to that of the 

strands in the rope, the result will be respectively a Lang’s Lay rope or an Ordinary ( Regular) 

Lay rope, having a Right Hand Lay or Left Hand Lay according to the lay of the strands. 

Right Hand and Left Hand lays are designated respectively Z and S. 

Ordinary Lay ropes are less likely to kink and untwist, and their Ordinary Lay ropes are less subject to failure from 

crushing and distortion. Because the longer length of exposed outer wires presents greater wearing surface, 

Long’s Lay ropes have increased resistance to abrasion. 

Greater care must be exercised when handling Lang’s Lay ropes, as they are more likely to kink and untwist than 

Ordinary Lay ropes. 

Ordinary Lay ropes are generally used because of their greater stability; however Lang’s Lay ropes are preferred for 

guided loads such as passenger and freight elevators because the wires have a longer contact with the sheave grooves 

and consequently less wear. Given equal construction and diameter, Lang’s Lay ropes are more flexible than the 

Ordinary Lay type. 

The wire ropes we manufacture are performed according to special methods which give them stability and eliminate 

internal stresses.

4. LUBRICATION 

Wire ropes are lubricated as a protection against oxidization and to reduce friction between wires and strands. 

Fiber cores are impregnated for preservation purposes. During the stranding and roping operations, all wires forming 

the strand and all strands forming the rope are lubricated. The type of lubrication varies according to the application for 

the rope and the type of plant for which it is intended. During the working life of the rope, lubrication should be carried 

out periodically with good quality products compatible with those used during manufacture and which we shall be 

pleased to indicate upon request. 

Lubricants used during manufacture shall be free from solvents, moisture, aromatic compounds, alkaline soaps and 

acidity both organic and inorganic. For protection of wire ropes against corrosion and frictional wear, Elephant Wire 

Ropes have various kinds of lubrications as below.

5. WIRE ROPE CORES 

The core of a wire rope is the central member around which the main strands are laid. It’s principal function is to 

support the strands, and maintain them in their proper position when loads are applied. The three types of cores 

commonly used in wire ropes are independent wire rope cores (IWRC), wire strand cores (WSC), and fiber cores (FC) of 

either natural or synthetic fiber. 

1) Independent Wire Rope Cores (IWRC) 

This is a separate wire rope used as a core in the main wire rope. 

2) Independent Wire Strand Core (IWSC) 

A single strand can be used as the core in a wire rope. The wire strand core may be of the same construction as the 

outer strands, or of defferent construction. A 6-strand rope with a wire strand core of a different construction from that 

of the main strands is called a 6-strand rope with WSC. If the core is of the same construction, the rope is ususlly 

called a 7-strand rope-for example, 7x7 or 7x19. Wire strand cores are limited to standing ropes, and small diameter 

running ropes. 

3) Fiber Core (FC) 

These cores are fiber ropes, made from either natural fibers such as manila, sisal, jute, or cotton or synthetic fibers 

such as polypropylene or polyethylene. 

6. ZINC-COATED WIRE ROPE 

Galvanized ropes have theire wires uniformly coated with zinc for protection against corrosion where ropes are exposed 

to the weather, to moisture, to salt water or to other corroding agents. Conventional galvanized ropes have lower 

strength than bright ropes(uncoated), and their use is usually limited to stationary installations such as guys, standing 

rigging, towing hawsers, mooring lines and the likes. For hosting equipment in locations where corrosive conditions are 

present, heavily lubricated bright ropes usually are preferred to galvanized ropes. 

The wires can be zinc-coated after the last drawing operation (galvanized) or before and then redrawn (drawn 

galvanized). 

7. PREFORMED WIRE ROPE 

In a preformed wire rope, the individual wires in the strands, and strands composing the rope, are properly preshaped 

by preforming head before they are assembled into the finished rope. Preforming prevents the wire and strands from 

straightening, and leaves them relaxed in their normal positions in the rope. Preformed ropes have the following merits 

as compared with non-preformed ropes; 

1) The flexibility is superior to non-preformed ropes, and during use wire ropes kink scarcely ever occurres. 

2) Because preformed wire ropes have a great endurance to bending, a wire rope’s life will be longer. 

3) Broken wire ends do not protrude to injure workmen’s hand, distort adjacent wires, or cause wear to 

sheaves and drums. 


8. GRADES OF WIRE ROPE 

Elephant Brand Wire Ropes are manufactured in various Tensile Strength grades to meet the varied requirements of many 

applications. Each grade provides a different combination of tensile strength, toughness, and endurance to abrasion and 

bending 

Grades A BG B CG C SC 

Tensile Strength(kg/mm 2 ) 165 165 180 180 200 220 

* BG,CG,Grade : Galvanized B. C. grade. 

* SC Grade : Super C grade. 

9. SAFETY FACTORS 

The safety factor is the ratio of the strength of the rope to the working load. Thus, a wire rope with a strength of 10,000 

pounds and a total working load of 2,000 pounds would be operating a safety factor of five. 

It is not possible to estalbish a uniform safety factor each type of rope-using equipment, as this factor can safely vary with 

conditions on individual units of equipment. The proper safety factor depends not only on the loads applied, but also on the 

speed of operation, the type of fittings used for securing the rope ends, the acceleration and deceleration, the length of 

rope, the number, size and location of sheaves and drums, the factors causing abrasion and corrosion, the facilities for 

inspection, and the danger to life and property. The following talbe of minimum safety factors is submitted only as a guide. 

These have been established by experience as the minimum safety factors required for safety and economy on the average 

installation. 

Larger safety factors are desirable, as they represent greater safety and, in most cases, increase economy.

10. RECOMMENDATION OF WIRE ROPE 

We shall try and convey some of our know-how and experience which may serve as a guide, or rather as a way of 

thinking, in selecting the correct type of wire rope for a given application. 

It will be necessary to make an analysis of all operation conditions, including the design and construction of the 

installation etc. to find out which factors have the most adverse effect on the service life of the wire rope. 

We give some general recommendations and suggestions on the types of wire rope to be selected for various 

operation duties.

11. Handling and Care of Wire Ropes 

Ropes should be stored in a clean dry place under cover. Reels or coils should be kept off the ground and supported by 

timber. They should also be examined periodically and rope dressing renewed as required. 

1) Unreeling and Uncoiling 

Reels should be mounted on jacks and care taken to see that the reel rotates as the rope unwinds. Timber should be 

applied as a lever to one of the flanges to act as a brake, keeping the rope tight and preventing the reel from overrunning. 

When the ropes are supplied in coils a turntalbe or swift should be employed and the free end pulled out with event 

tension as the swift, or turnatable revolve. Over-winding should be avoided at all times to obviate kinking. Coils may 

also be unwound by securing the free outside end of the rope and then rolling the coil along the ground; care being 

taken at all times to ensure that the coil is held firmly together, avoiding tight coils or kinks.

2) Seizings 

It is important that before cutting ropes are properly seized with annealed mild steel wire or strand to avoid slack wires 

and possible rope distortion. 


How to Order Wire Ropes 

To avoid errors it is necessary, when asking for quotations or placing orders, that the required rope be 

accurately specified. The best procedure is to use the Specification given in a previous order 

confirmation or invoice. 

If the required rope has not been ordered before, please state the following data: 

1. Construction and type of core : (ex. 619+IWRC) 

2. Ungalvanized or galvanized : (ex. Galvanized) 

3. Diameter or circumference : (ex. 25mm) 

4. Direction and type of lay : (ex. Right-Hand Regular Lay) 

5. Preformed or non-preformed. : (ex. Preformed) 

6. Lubrication : (ex. A-3 type) 

7. Tensile strength : (ex. 180 Kgs/mm 2 ) 

8. Specification : (ex. BSS, API, DIN & etc.) 

9. Packing : (ex. Coil, Wooden-drum etc.) 

10. Usage : (ex. Fishing, Sky-line, Haul-back line & etc.) 

If parts of these data are not stated, the rope will be supplied in the nearest current type. It is therefore, 

recommended always to state the service for which the rope is intended. 

Clients who require our advice on improving the service 

life of ropes for and existing installation should furnish 

the following information: 

1. the data of the ropes used so far (see above) and 

their performance in actual practice; 

2. a reeving diagram including all data on sheaves 

and drums such as diameters, size of grooves, groove 

spacing, pitch of grooves on the drum, lifting height etc.; 

3. intensity of service; 

4. nominal and maximum loads; 

5. number of layers of the rope on the drum with 

lifted load; 

6. special conditions, such as corrosive atmosphere, 

high temperature exposure etc. 

On the basis of this data we will be albe to give expert 

advice on the type of repe to be used.
