steel wire rope terminations pricelist

The wire rope terminations that require fitting by using the Wirelock resin are the most commonly used kind of specifically terminating a wire because they are very safe and especially effective permitting long term exploitation.

When they were proof load tested these kinds of sockets (closed spelter socket) have reached a higher breaking force level compared to other kind of terminations.

They are fitted by rolling the wire rope"s end around the fixing wedge and then clipping the loose end of the wire rope with a wire clip. These sockets (closed wedged sockets) are most commonly used for mobile cranes.

The wire rope sockets (open wedged sockets) that are fitted by using an inside wedge are the easiest to fit of all this kind of wire rope terminations.

What works with thick wire is problematic when using wire rope: How can the rope end be equipped with a thread? To this purpose, "terminals" were invented. Architectural ropes that have been cut to size are provided with such a terminal on both ends. Analogous to tension ropes, the terminal has an external thread with which the cable is inserted into a mount and tightly tensioned from behind with the help of a threaded nut. In the case of high-grade tensioning cable systems, our competitors often work with sophisticated threaded and fork terminals. They are usually rolled with special machines and are correspondingly expensive. Alternatively, there are do-it-yourself terminals, in which the rope is fixed by grub screws transverse to the fiber direction; the cable end is then virtually part of the threaded rod. But even this solution remains price-intensive.

Therefore, Fassadengrün forgoes terminals altogether and has the ropes tensioned by hand, as described under our section on Installation. But how are the protruding cable ends then protected?

US Producer Price Index: Metals and Metal Products: Ferrous Wire Rope, Cable, Forms Strand is at a current level of 374.05, up from 373.69 last month and up from 316.95 one year ago. This is a change of 0.09% from last month and 18.02% from one year ago.

MAX Groups Marine is one of the most trusted suppliers of stainless steel and galvanised wire ropes/cables. Wire ropes consist of several strands of metal wire twisted into a helix form, forming extremely durable wire ropes for various marine purposes. Wire ropes are exposed to high fluctuation of contradicting forces, wear and tear or even corrosion in some cases. Thus, the quality of wire rope has to be taken very seriously.

Constant eye inspection and tests should be carried out to make sure the wire ropes are performing as they should. In MAX, all manufacturing of wire ropes are supervised and tested by professional technicians at all times.

Commonly used types of wire ropes may be of a fiber core (FC), Wire Strand core (WSC) or an Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC). Usually IWRC core ropes are more durable whereas fibre core wire ropes are more elastic. The choice of wire rope core mostly depends on the usage and situation.

Most wire ropes are made from high-carbon steel, iron, stainless steel, bronze and more. Carbon steel wire ropes are graded from IPS (Improved Plow Steel), EIPS (Extra Improved Plow Steel to EEIPS (Extra Extra Improved Plow Steel), with each grade signifying its nominal strength. The most popular MAX steel wire ropes are of EIPS grade.

It doesn’t matter whether the lay direction is right (Z) or left (S), ordinary lay or langlay, MAX wire ropes are designed to have high durability and tensile strength for heavy industry usage.

For wire rope slings, you may opt for thimble eye (where a thimble if fixed inside the loop to preserve the natural loop shape and prevent direct contact that will damage the cable) or soft eye. Besides, rope ends with machine swaged with ferrules or sockets is a better option than hand spliced slings as it offers more protection.
