GENERAL GUIDANCE ON ROPE SELECTION
Manufacturing from Rod to Rope
General Guidance on Wire Rope ConstructionA wire rope is made from spinning individual steel wires together with a lubricant. Multi-strand wire ropes are made by closing a number of wire ropes (or strands) around a central core with a lubricant. The core is a wire rope with a central king wire that runs parallel to the length of the rope.
This is a very simplified overview of the basic construction of a wire rope. In reality the increasing demands facing wire rope for lifting and lowering ever larger loads in more arduous conditions means that modern wire ropes require extensive technical knowledge and manufacturing capability to achieve the right balance of strength, flexibility and endurance that will ensure safe and economic operation in diverse applications and industry sectors.
Indeed, due to the complex interaction between the many individual components of a wire rope under heavy load and from fatigue due to bending, wire rope is classified as a machine. These interactions have become ever more complex as synthetic materials have been combined into the construction of wire ropes in order to reach new levels of performance.
To help you understand the complex nature of wire rope this guide aims to impart an understanding of the key factors that need to be considered and correctly balanced when choosing which type of rope will provide optimum service life and safety for a specific task, type of machinery and working environment.
An example rope nomenclature for the rope shown above is given below;
6 x 36WS - IWRC 1960 B sZ
What it means;
6 = numbers of strands
36 = number of wires in each strand
1-7-7+7-14 = Lay-up of wires in the strand
IWRC = Type of core
1960 = Rope grade

Equal lay strand constructions
6-stranded rope constructions(for example nominal diameter 22mm)
Parallel laid or DSC (Double Seale Closed) ropes
The Dyforming process is where the strand having been produced from round wires is passed through a die or rollers to squeeze the steel inwards, increasing the steel fill factor and creating a smooth surface on the exterior of the strand.
The rope lay of a wire rope may be described as;
sZ = Right hand ordinary/regular layzZ = Right hand lang’s layaZ = Right hand alternate layzS = Left hand ordinary/regular laysS = Left hand lang’s layaS = Left hand alternate lay
Lang’s lay ropes offer greater wear resistance and minimise spooling damage at the cross-over zones when multi-layer wound on winch drum. It must be noted that single layer ropes (6 and 8 stranded ropes) and parallel laid rope constructions in lang’s lay can be used only when both ends of the ropes are fixed or prevented from rotation. Rotation resistant rope constructions in lang’s lay may be used with one end free to rotate, for example, when attached to a hook or swivel.
Historically, wire ropes were constructed with either natural fibre (Hemp, Jute, Manila, Sisal) or Synthetic fibre (Polypropylene) cores, however today’s high performance crane ropes are produced with steel cores or with steel cores having a plastic coating which can take several different forms and material.

GENERAL GUIDANCE ON ROPE SELECTION
The completed rope may also be plastic coated, either sheathed or by impregnation which totally fills the rope. As an alternative to extruding plastic in to the rope, extruded plastic sections may be spun in to the rope during the manufacturing process.
Wire ropes can also be swaged or Dyformed after completion, further increasing the steel fill factor, whilst creating a smooth surface to the exterior of the rope.
CoresSteel Wire ropes are supplied with either fibre or steel cores, the choice being largely dependent on the use for which the rope is intended.
The principal function of the core is to provide support to the strands and maintain them in the correct positions under working conditions.
Steel CoresSteel cores comprise an independent wire rope (IWRC) or in the case of small ropes, a wire strand (WSC). Such cores prove advantageous in severe working conditions involving low factors of safety, high operating speeds, wide fleet angles and are more resistant to crushing on drums and pulleys. The steel core provides better support for the outer strands, so that the rope retains its shape, resulting in a more effective distribution of stress in the individual wires.
PreformingGenerally, ropes are supplied preformed.
In a preformed rope the wires and strands are given the helix they take up in the completed rope.
Note: Rotation-resistant ropes should be considered as ‘non-preformed’ when cutting.
Advantages of pre-formed ropes:
• Exposed ends will not untwist• Broken wire ends lie flat• Easy to handle during installation• Less prone to kinking and are free form liveliness
and twisting tendencies.
CoatingsZinc Coated Wire Ropes – GalvanisingZinc coatings provide sacrificial protection to the underlying steel wire for protection against corrosion where the rope is exposed to corrosive agents – salt, water, moisture, weather etc.
Various coat weights of zinc are available for particular application; Bridon is ready to advise on the alternative procedures for achieving corrosion protection of wire rope appropriate to the particular environment and manner of usage.
Protective SheathingRopes and strands protected by synthetic sheathing can provide excellent additional corrosion protection where environmental conditions dictate, such as deep water mooring lines etc, the plastic sheath providing a barrier between the rope and environment. The method of extrusion employed for these ropes results in a finished product, which will meet all the environmental and mechanical demands required of the rope. The standard range of coverings includes polypropylene, PVC and polyethylene.

Definition of Breaking Loads and Forces1. Minimum Breaking Force: The force, in
kilonewtons or pounds force below which the rope shall not break when tested to destruction.
2. Minimum Breaking Load: The load in tonnes or tons corresponding to the minimum breaking force.
3. Minimum aggregate breaking force: The value calculated from the product of the sum of the cross-sectional metallic areas of all the individual wires in the rope and the tensile strength grades(s) of the wires.
Note: The minimum aggregate breaking force is sometimes used when Regulations permit, particularly in Europe. There is a direct relationship between minimum aggregate breaking force and minimum breaking force (through the spinning loss) and users must be absolutely sure that they are comparing like for like when ordering replacement ropes.
When selecting a steel wire rope to suit a particular application the following characteristics should be taken into consideration.
• Strength• Rotation resistance• Fatigue resistance• Resistance to wear and abrasion• Resistance to crushing• Resistance to corrosion• Rope extension
StrengthThe responsibility for determining the minimum strength of a rope for use in a given system rests with the manufacturer of the machine, appliance, or lifting equipment. As part of this process the manufacturer of the machine, appliance or lifting equipment will need to be aware of any local regulations, standards or codes of practice which might govern the design factor of the rope (often referred to nowadays as the coefficient of utilisation), and other factors which might influence the design of sheaves and drums, the shape of the groove profiles and corresponding radius, the drum pitch and the angle of fleet, all of which have an effect on rope performance.
Once the strength (referred to as minimum breaking force or minimum breaking load) of the rope has been determined it is then necessary to consider which type of rope will be suitable for the intended duty. It is important therefore for the designer to be fully aware of the properties, characteristics and limitations on use of the many different kinds of steel wire ropes which are available.
Resistance to RotationIt is important to determine whether there is a requirement to use a low rotation or rotation resistant rope. Such ropes are often referred to as multi - strand ropes.
Six or eight strand rope constructions are usually selected unless load rotation on a single part system or “cabling” on a multi - part reeving system are likely to cause operational problems.
When loaded, steel wire ropes will generate:
• “Torque” if both ends are fixed• “Turn” if one end is unrestrained
TorqueWhen both ends of a rope are fixed, the applied force generates “torque” at the fixing points.
Bridon recommends that once the machine, appliance or lifting equipment has been taken into service, any replacement rope should possess the required characteristics for the duty in question and should, as a minimum, at least comply with the minimum guaranteed breaking force stated by the original equipment manufacturer.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR CRANE OPERATORS
Every rope produced by Bridon is “Powerchecked” to confirm compliance with the minimum guaranteed breaking force or load stated in this catalogue

TurnWhen one end of a rope is free to rotate, the applied load causes the rope to turn.
FORCECREATESTURN
Anchored
Free toRotate
The torque or turn generated will increase as the load applied increases. The degree to which a wire rope generates torque or turn will be influenced by the construction of the rope. Having recognised what can happen when a rope is loaded it is necessary to select the correct type of rope. It should be noted that all ropes will rotate to some degree when loaded.
The diagram below serves to illustrate the differences in rotational properties between the four basic types of stranded rope.
Specific information including the torque factor and the turn value expressed in degrees per lay length for individual rope constructions can be found on page 11.
The tendency for any rope to turn will increase as the height of lift increases. In a multi - part reeving system the tendency for the rope to cable will increase as the spacing between the parts of rope decreases. Selection of the correct rope will help to prevent “cabling” and rotation of the load.

Bridon is pleased to offer advice on any specific problems associated with rope rotation.
Bridon is able to verify the rotational characteristics of individual wire ropes through testing on its specially designed in house torque/turn machine. All Bridon products intended for lifting applications have been subject to this “Twistcheck” testing programme.
Fatigue ResistanceSteel wire ropes are likely to deteriorate due to bend fatigue when subjected to bending around a sheave or drum. The rate of deterioration will be influenced by the number of sheaves in the system, the diameter of the sheaves and drum, and the loading conditions.
Bridon carries out extensive testing on their products, providing comparative fatigue data to allow customers to make an informed choice.
When selecting a wire rope for an application where bending fatigue is a principal cause of deterioration it is important to select a rope containing small wires e.g.
6x36WS(1-7-7+7-14) as opposed to a 6x19S(1-9-9).
Additional resistance to fatigue leading to real cost savings can be achieved by selecting a “Dyform®” wire rope.
“Endurance” low rotation and rotation resistant ropes ensure that problems associated with cabling and load rotation are minimised.

The smooth surface of the “Dyform®” product provides improved rope to sheave contact leading to reduced wear on both rope and sheave . Increased cross-sectional steel area and improved inter - wire contact ensures that the rope will operate with lower internal stress levels resulting in longer bending fatigue life and lower costs.
This graph illustrates a “doubling” in life when moving from Blue Strand 6x36 to Endurance Dyform® 6. This same relationship can be found when moving from any construction into an equivalent Dyform® construction e.g. 18x7 to Endurance Dyform® 18 or 35x7 to Endurance Dyform® 34LR.
Resistance to Abrasive WearAbrasive wear can take place between rope and sheave and between rope and drum but the greatest cause of abrasion is often through “interference” at the drum.
If abrasion is determined to be a major factor in rope deterioration then a wire rope with relatively large outer wires should be selected.

The smooth surface of Dyform® rope creates better contact and leads to longer life.
Abrasion Resistance vs Bending Fatigue ResistanceWhen choosing a rope for a specific application it is often necessary to reach a balance between the two important rope characteristics of abrasion resistance and the resistance to bending fatigue. An established method of determining the best construction for the rope for the particular operating conditions is by use of the “X- Chart”. By referring to this chart when selecting a rope, the mid-point of the “X” comes closest to a balance between resistance to abrasion and resistance to bending fatigue. As with most engineering challenges, some degree of compromise and trade off of the two properties may be required in order to choose the best rope for the application. This will ultimately depend on the prevailing conditions under which the rope will be expected to operate in and the need to reach an efficient, economical solution.

GENERAL GUIDANCE ON ROPE SELECTION
Crush Resistance In multi - layer coiling applications where there is more than one layer of rope on the drum it is essential to install the rope with some back tension. Bridon recommends a minimum installation tension of between 2.5% and 10% of the minimum breaking force of the rope. If this is not achieved, or in certain applications where high pressure on underlying rope layers is inevitable e.g. a boom hoist rope raising a boom from the horizontal position, severe crushing damage can be caused to underlying layers. Selection of a steel core as opposed to a fibre core will help this situation. Additional resistance to crushing is offered by a Dyform® rope resulting from its high steel fill-factor.
Dyform® ropes are recommended for multi - layer coiling operations where crushing on lower layers is inevitable.
Rotary hammer swaged Constructex ropes excel to combat problem spooling to minimise damage and crushing on the drum.
Corrosion resistance If the wire rope is to be used in a corrosive environment then a galvanised coating is recommended. If corrosion is not a significant issue then a bright rope can be selected.
Where moisture can penetrate the rope and attack the core, plastic impregnation (PI) can be considered.
In order to minimise the effects of corrosion it is important to select a wire rope with a suitable manufacturing lubricant. Further advantages can be gained by lubricating the rope regularly whilst it is in service.
Properties of Extension of Steel Wire RopesAny assembly of steel wires spun into a helical formation either as a strand or wire rope, when subjected to a tensile load, can extend in three separate phases, depending on the magnitude of the applied load.
There are also other factors which produce rope extension which are very small and can normally be ignored.
Phase 1 - Initial or Permanent Constructional ExtensionAt the commencement of loading a new rope, extension is created by the bedding down of the assembled wires with a corresponding reduction in overall diameter. This reduction in diameter creates an excess length of wire which is accommodated by a lengthening of the helical lay. When sufficiently large bearing areas have been generated on adjacent wires to withstand the circumferential compressive loads, this mechanically created extension ceases and the extension in Phase 2 commences. The Initial Extension of any rope cannot be accurately determined by calculation and has no elastic properties.
The practical value of this characteristic depends upon many factors, the most important being the type and construction of rope, the range of loads and the number and frequency of the cycles of operation. It is not possible to quote exact values for the various constructions of rope in use, but the following approximate values may be employed to give reasonably accurate results.
The above figures are for guidance purposes. More precise figures are available upon request.
Phase 2 - Elastic ExtensionFollowing Phase 1, the rope extends in a manner which complies approximately with Hookes Law (stress is proportional to strain) until the Limit of Proportionality or Elastic Limit is reached.
It is important to note that wire ropes do not possess a Young’s Modulus of Elasticity, but an ‘apparent’ Modulus of Elasticity can be determined between two fixed loads.
The Modulus of Elasticity also varies with different rope constructions, but generally increases as the cross-sectional area of steel increases.

General Notes
GalvanizedThe Bridon group has the capability to offer any crane product in either Bright or Galvanized finish. Typically, cranes use Bright ropes in North American and Galvanized ropes in the European Union and the GOM. Globally, local usage standards, application conditions and preference may define the actual rope finish selected.
Smooth Drum“When using multi-strand, rotation resistant products in multi-layer applications, the use of Lebus type grooved drums may provide superior spooling performance over smooth faced drums.”
Minimum Breaking ForceMany wire rope applications, mobile cranes and deep water mooring systems in particular benefit from very high strength to weight ratios. As a result, designers are constantly pushing the specific strength envelope of the wire rope used in their products. Bridon and many other rope companies have responded to these requirements with innovative materials and manufacturing techniques to push rope strengths past the highest values listed in national and international standards.
Properties like strength, fatigue life, crush resistance and stability of physical properties are a function of the materials used, geometry of the design and manufacturing processes employed in the specific rope configuration. Optimizing the configuration to produce highest strength is not achieved without effecting other properties. Fatigue life and long term stability of physical properties are most affected by the techniques employed to produce extremely high strength wire rope. Because of these effects, characteristics of extremely high strength rope need to be understood for specific applications. Please contact Bridon Technical sales to review your specific use.
Cross SectionsThe cross section image is for reference only. Actual cross sections vary due to diameter.
By using the values given, it is possible to make a reasonable estimate of elastic extension, but if greater accuracy is required it is advisable to carry out a modulus test on an actual sample of the rope.
Elastic Extension = WL mm
____
EA
W = load applied (kN)L = rope length (m)EA = axial stiffness MN
Phase 3 - Permanent ExtensionThe permanent, non-elastic extension of the steel caused by tensile loads exceeding the yield point of the material.
If the load exceeds the Limit of Proportionality, the rate of extension will accelerate as the load is increased, until a loading is reached at which continuous extension will commence, causing the wire rope to fracture without any further increase of load.
LubricationDuring the wire rope manufacturing process, the space between the wires is normally filled with petrolatum based grease, these greases having a temperature operating range typically of 0°C to +60°C. Synthetic grease with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +90°C may be incorporated. It is important when specifying a particular rope to consider the type of lubricant required for the application and the amount of lubricant required on the exterior of the rope, as the tendency is to produce ropes with less grease on their exterior.
Lubricants may be applied to wire ropes during service to both increase their fatigue performance and protect the ropes from corrosion.

• Forged from special bar quality carbon steel, suitable for cold forming.
• Swage Socket terminations have an efficiency rating of 100% based on the catalogue strength of wire rope.
• Hardness controlled by spheroidize annealing.
• Stamp for identification after swaging without concern for fractures (as per directions in National Swaging Brochure).
• Swage sockets incorporate a reduced machined area of the shank which is equivalent to the proper “After Swage” dimension. Before swaging, this provides for an obvious visual difference in the shank diameter. After swaging, a uniform shank diameter is created allowing for a QUIC-CHECK® and permanent visual inspection opportunity.
• Designed to quickly determine whether the socket has been through the swaging operation and assist in field inspections, it does not elimi-nate the need to perform standard production inspections which include gauging for the proper “After Swage” dimensions or proof loading.
• U.S. Patent 5,152,630 and foreign equivalents.
• NOTE: S-501 Swage Sockets are recommended for use with 6 x 19 or 6 x 37, IPS or XIP (EIP), XXIP (EEIP), RRL, FC or IWRC wire rope.
• Before using any National Swage fitting with any other type lay, construction or grade of wire rope, it is recommended that the termination be destructive tested and documented to prove the adequacy of the assembly to be manufactured.
• In accordance with ANSI B30.9, all slings terminated with swage sockets shall be proof loaded.*
*Maximum Proof Load shall not exceed 50% of XXIP rope catalogue breaking strength.

• Basket is cast steel.
• Wedge socket terminations have an efficiency rating of 80% based on the catalogue strength of XXIP wire rope.
• Crosby products meet or exceed all requirements of ASME B30.26 including identification, ductility, design factor, proof load and temperature requirements. Importantly, Crosby products meet other critical performance requirements including fatigue life, impact properties and materi-al traceability, not addressed by ASME B30.26.
• Individually magnetic particle inspected.
• Pin diameter and jaw opening allows wedge and socket to be used in conjuction with open swage and spelter sockets.
• Secures the tail or “dead end” of the wire rope to the wedge, thus eliminates loss or “Punch out” of the wedge.
• Eliminates the need for an extra piece of rope, and is easily installed.
• The TERMINATOR™ wedge eliminates the potential breaking off of the tail due to fatigue.
• The tail, which is secured by the base of the clip and the wedge, is left undeformed and available for reuse.
• Incorporates Crosby’s patented QUIC-CHECK® “Go” and “No-Go” feature cast into the wedge. The proper size rope is determined when the following criteria are met: 1) The wire rope should pass through the “Go” hole in the wedge. 2) The wire rope should NOT pass through the “No-Go” hole in the wedge.
• Utilises standard Crosby Red-U-Bolt® wire rope clip.
• Standard S-421 wedge socket can be retrofitted with the new style TERMINATOR™ wedge.
• Available with Bolt, Nut, and Cotter Pin.
• U.S. patent 5,553,360 and foreign equivalents.
