Wire Rope Identification and Construction

Wire ropes are identified by a nomenclature that is referenced to: 1) the number of strands in the rope, 2) the number
(nominal or exact) and arrangement of wires in each strand, and 3) a descriptive word or letter indicating the type of
construction, i.e., the geometric arrangement of wires.

SELECTING THE PROPER TYPE OF WIRE ROPE CENTER


There are three general types of wire rope centers.
(1) STRAND CENTER (3) INDEPENDENT WIRE ROPE
The strand center is usually confined to use in stationary CENTER (IWRC)
ropes such as guys, suspension bridge cables, and in An independent wire rope center is usually specified to

occasionally specified on installations where severe as follows:

CONSTRUCTION OF TYPICAL ROPE LAYS


Five different lays of rope to choose from.

(1) Right Regular Lay

GENERAL INFORMATION
(2) Left Regular Lay

(3) Right Lang Lay

(4) Left Lang Lay

(5) Right Alternate Lay

Wire rope is identified not only by its component parts, but also by its construction, i.e., by the way the wires have been
laid to form strands, and by the way the strands have been laid around the core.

A regular lay rope is one in which the direction of lay of the wires of the individual strands is opposite to that of the
strands in the rope resulting in the individual wires running parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rope.

A lang lay rope is one in which the direction of the wires of the individual strand is the same as that of the strands in the
rope resulting in the individual wires running diagonally across the longitudinal axis of the rope.

In an alternate right and left lay rope, the strands are alternately regular lay and lang lay. This construction is seldom
used, its principal application being on button conveyors.

Lang lay ropes are advantageous over regular lay ropes in that they provide a greater wearing surface, result in less
wear on sheave equipment and provide a greater bending fatigue resistance, however, they are not nearly as stable as
regular lay ropes from a standpoint of resisting crushing and “bird-caging,” therefore they are limited in their applications
and should be used only where recommended by a qualified wire rope engineer.

RECEIVING, INSPECTION AND STORAGE


For all wire rope, the best time to begin taking appropriate care and handling measures is immediately upon receiving it.
On arrival, the rope should be carefully checked to make certain that the delivered product matches the description on
tags, requisition forms, packing slips, purchase orders, and invoice.

CALCULATING DRUM CAPACITY Clearance


The capacity of a drum for wire rope in feet uniformly
wound is calculated by the following formula: Figure 6. Clearance

clearances should
L = (A + B) x A x C x K be about 1 inch for
ropes 1/2 inch and
smaller and about
L = Length of rope in feet twice the diameter

FLEET ANGLES
Defining fleet angles on installations where the
rope passes over a sheave onto the drum.

To prevent a poor winding condition of wire rope on


the drums of any equipment and excessive wear of
rope on the flanges of a fixed position or head sheave
leading to the drum, the maximum angle between the
center line of the sheave and the rope when at either
side of the drum should not be greater than 1-1/2º for
smooth faced drums and 3º for grooved drums. This
angle is known as the fleet angle.

A fleet angle of 1-1/2º is equivalent to a lead of 40


feet per foot of fleet across the drum, measured from
the center line of the sheave or a lead of 20 feet per
foot of fleet across the drum for a fleet angle of 3º.

Smaller fleet angles may result in the rope piling up


on the drum. Larger fleet angles may cause excessive
wear from rubbing against the flanges of the sheave
as well as excessive crushing and abrasion of the rope
on the drum. Figure 7. Wherever practicable, the head
sheave should be placed so that its center
line bisects the portion of the drum which
the rope traverses.

P R O P E R LY L U B R I C AT E D
A wire rope is in reality a machine with its component
wires constituting its moving parts, therefore it should
be treated as a machine with regards to lubrication
during periods of service. While it is true that all ropes
are treated at the factory with the very best available
lubricants, these lubricants in many instances cannot be
expected to last throughout the service life of the rope.
For this reason, strict attention to the requirements of
lubrication of wire rope while in service will result in
greatly improved performance and service obtained.

An improperly seized non-preformed rope is subject not
only to the loss of the portion of rope which will fray out
or unlay if the seizing becomes loose, but in addition,
may result in one or more high strands which will work
back into the rope resulting in early destruction of the
rope due to concentrated wear on these high strands.

VINYL COATED CABLE


Small diameter 7 x 7 and 7 x 19 construction wire rope is sometimes referred to as “aircraft cable”. It is not intended for
aircraft use but designed for industrial and marine applications. When using wire rope clips with plastic coated cable,
match clip size to uncoated cable diameter (3/16" cable coated to 1/4" takes 3/16" clip). Strip plastic coating off cable
where clips will be positioned for full holding power.

MULTI-PART WIRE ROPE SLINGS


Delta Rigging and Tools Multi-Part slings are flexible, snug up tightly around the load in choker hitches, and quickly regain
shape after a lift. They also offer outstanding handling characteristics, particularly in the larger rated capacities. When
loaded, stress is equally distributed to all rope parts in the sling body due to the helical manner in which ropes are laid
together.

Braided slings are formed by continuously plaiting, or braiding, several ropes together to form the sling body and both eyes
in a single fabrication operation. Ends of individual ropes are usually hand-tucked or mechanically spliced into component
ropes of the body. Eyes are wrapped and given a rubberized coating since eyes are not braided.

Braided slings are often selected where loads must be rolled or maneuvered, since the design creates friction to grip loads
and resist rotation.

TUFFY TRI-BRAID SLINGS


TUFF AND FLEXIBLE SLINGS, FOR YOUR TOUGHEST, MOST DEMANDING LOADS
Unmatched Flexibility
The unique 3x3 strand design of all Tuffy tri-braid slings consists of a patented
machine-braided wire fabric with interlaced construction, resulting in flexibility
and abrasion resistance far superior to standard rope strands. Made of industrial-
grade steel and constructed with the highest quality standards, only Tuffy slings
possess the perfect balance of strength, flexibility and durability.
Longer Service Life
Because machine braiding produces proper balancing of all parts, the outcome is
a highly efficient sling with a much longer service life. Even if one of the braided
parts is cut or broken, there is no stranding. Durable and reliable, Tuffy tri-braid

WIRE ROPE SLINGS


slings perform to unprecedented standards, keeping working environments more
productive and effective.
Quicker and Easier Loading
Workers now have an easy-to-handle tool that significantly eases and speeds the
hitching and unhitching process. Tuffy's flexibility enables greater sling control,
and the unique construction yields a safer, more secure sling, significantly less
prone to dangerous recoils and breakage.
Complete Knot and Kink Resistance
Tuffy Tri-braid slings are virtually impervious to kinking and knotting due to the
machine-braided and interlaced construction. Nothing short of a vice can leave a
mark on a Tuffy sling, and even then the ridge simply straightens out with no
material damage. Where a standard sling's strength can be canceled out if
stiffness imposes abnormal fatigue which saps the sling's endurance, the
flexibility and balance built into every tri-braid sling renders this issue obsolete.

How to Order

TUFFY BRAND UTILITY SLINGS


Delta Rigging and Tools is dedicated to the manufacturing of synthetic web slings that meet or exceed current industry
standards (OSHA and ANSI B30.9). Only the finest domestic webbing and hardware is used so that you are assured of the
best in each and every web sling. All webbing has a red thread woven into the core to serve as a warning to the operator,
when exposed, the web sling has reached the end of safe use. However, red yarns are not the only criteria for determining
the removal of web slings from service. When in doubt as to the serviceability of a web sling, consult your manufacturer or
OSHA Standards as to proper use or removal from service. All the load charts herein are based on a safety factor of 5:1.
However, all loading is based on new and unused slings and does not relieve the end user from responsibility for regular
inspection for damage and serviceability. (See manufacturer’s warranty and liability.)

Wedge Sockets

“THE TERMINATOR™” WEDGE SOCKETS


S-421T WEDGE SOCKETS
• Basket is cast steel.
• Wedge socket terminations have an efficiency rating of 80% based on the
catalog strength of XXIP wire rope.
• Individually magnetic particle inspected.
• Pin diameter and jaw opening allows wedge and socket to be used in
conjunction 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 wire rope, and is easily installed.
R I G G I N G H A R DWA R E

• 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: S-421T*
1. The wire rope should pass through the “Go” hole in the wedge. OPTIONAL
2. The wire rope should NOT pass through the “No-Go” hole in the wedge. WEDGE G-4082

Open Swage Sockets

S-501 OPEN SWAGE SOCKET


• Forged from special bar quality carbon steel, suitable for cold forming.
• Hardness controlled by spheroidize annealing.
• Swage socket terminations have an efficiency rating of 100%, based on the catalog
strength of wire rope.
• 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

R I G G I N G H A R DWA R E
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 eliminate the need to perform
standard production inspections which include gauging for the proper after swage
dimensions or proof loading.

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.

In accordance with ANSI B30.9, all slings terminated with swage sockets shall be proof loaded.*

Hoist Hooks

HOOK HOISTS S-320

EYE HOOKS
Hoist hooks incorporate markings forged into the product which
address two (2) QUIC-CHECK™ features:

Angle Indicators – Indicates the maximum included angle


which is allowed between two (2) sling legs in the hook. These
indicators also provide the opportunity to approximate other
included angles between two sling legs.

Deformation Indicators – Two strategically placed marks, one


just below the shank or eye and the other on the hook tip, which
R I G G I N G H A R DWA R E

allow for a QUIC-CHECK™ measurement to determine if the


throat opening has changed, thus indicating abuse or overload. S-320Ñ

To check, use a measuring device (i.e., tape measure) to


measure the distance between the marks. The marks should
align to either an inch or half-inch increment on the measuring
device. If the measurement does not meet this criteria, the hook
should be inspected further for possible damage.
