| Main Applications:
Overhead crane hoisting rope.
Rope Characteristic:
Extremely flexible rope types with up to 288 single wires (8x36) in the
outer strands. Better fatigue performance and fatigue life expectancy
than 6x19/6x36. Due to the larger number of outer wires these ropes tend
to be more sensitive to mechanical damages.
All 8-strand constructions require proper sheave- and drum groove dimensions.
Undersized and/or worn sheaves will immediately result in rope deformations,
waviness, or high strands. These ropes require extra care during installation
(no reverse bend spooling).
Standard:
ASTM 1023, Table 17, 18
EN 12385-4.8, 12385-4.10
ISO 2408
