Wire rope is technically defined as multi-wire strands laid geometrically around a core while also used more generally as a term to classify multiple product families including aircraft cable, coated aircraft cable, general purpose wire rope, strand, rotation resistant wire rope, compacted/swaged wire rope, and cable laid wire rope.

Aircraft cable does not fit the definition of wire rope in the strictest sense as it does not have an independent core, but rather a strand core, in which the center is one of the strands that is laid with the outside strand layers. Aircraft cable is available in diameters 3/8" or less with breaking strengths similar to that of equal diameter independent wire rope core (IWRC) and is available in stainless steel and galvanized steel.

Wire rope can be galvanized via three processes. Listed from least corrosion-resistant to the most corrosion-resistant, they are electro-galvanizing, hot-dip galvanizing, and drawn-galvanizing. In addition to being the most corrosion-resistant types of galvanized wire rope, drawn-galvanized has another added benefit which is a breaking strength that is the same as bright wire rope does. Electro-galvanized and hot-dip galvanized wire rope have breaking strengths that are approximately 10% lower.

Wire rope is specified by the number of strands in the rope, the number of wires in each strand, and a description of the core’s material of construction. For example, the notation “6x7 FC” means that the rope has six strands with seven wires in each strand and a fiber core. Commonly used core designations include FC (fiber core), independent wire rope core (IWRC), wire strand core (WSC), and poly core (PC).

There are two elements to wire rope lubrication, the core, and outer strands. IWRC wire rope always has a lubricated core (unless specially ordered as otherwise). Bright wire rope always has lubricated outer strands.  Galvanized wire rope can be manufactured in either dry finish or lubricated with respect to the outer strands.  Typically stainless steel wire rope is manufactured with a lubricated IWRC and dry finish outer strands.

Stainless steel mechanical cable is, by its very design, corrosion resistant. Even setting aside mechanical cable for a moment, stainless steel, as a material choice in any use case, ensures impressive resistance to environmental elements that would corrode this popular iron and carbon alloy. However, for all its corrosion-resistant properties, even stainless steel remains at risk of oxidation when applied to a harsh environment. It is therefore precisely when stainless steel requires additional protection from hostile conditions that cable design engineers may choose to perform an operation known as passivation to the stainless steel cable.

Passivation extends the life and quality of a stainless steel cable (and/or wire rope) by maximizing its corrosion resistance. This maximizing process involves treating the surface of the stainless steel mechanical cable with either nitric acid or citric acid, which removes free iron from the cable filament surfaces themselves. The acid removes the iron particles that exist on the surface layer of the cable, which may cause oxidation if certain conditions are present. Without passivation, by way of comparison, the free iron in the stainless steel cable would react with the oxygen in the air to ultimately introduce rust to the cable. Passivation removes this unwanted iron, leaving the critical element chromium to act as the protectant against oxidation.

Once the passivated cable is then exposed to oxygen, the oxygen bonds freely with the surface, creating an oxide layer that inherently protects the cable. The oxygen now binds to the surface instead of oxidizing. So the once potentially hostile and harmful element oxygen is now free to make unfettered contact with the stainless steel cable without consequence.

However, as protected as passivation leaves stainless steel cable, engineers must still treat the cable with care. Passivation creates a microlayer of protection against corrosion, but this surface treatment can be inadvertently stripped by the presence of friction, or other surface penetrant. So when installing, for instance, passivated stainless steel cable into a motion control system, design engineers must mitigate any potential sources of unwanted friction or other types of damage to the surface of the cable itself.

When passivating stainless steel cable, the cable is first cleaned through a process known as ultrasonic cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaning is the process of literally bathing the stainless steel cable in a solution where high frequency vibrations resonate the cable. These vibrating forces effectively shake free any unwanted particulate in anticipation of the passivation process.

Because passivation is designed to increase corrosion resistance to the surface of the cable filaments, it’s critical to understand that the role of ultrasonic cleaning is therefore to expose the most amount of cable surface area possible to later passivate. Once the stainless steel cable is ultrasonically cleaned, passivation can begin.

Although stainless steel cable is ideally suited to passivation, the acid used and degree to which the cable is exposed to it is determined by the grade of stainless steel. 304 stainless steel, for example, has a 18% chromium content, whereas 316 has 16% of the same element. Because of this subtle difference in material components, each will tolerate passivation acids differently. So while passivation is ideal for stainless steel, the acids used, as well as the exposure to them is decided on a case-by-case basis.

Take tungsten cable, for instance. It is not necessary for tungsten mechanical cable to be passivated because wolfram does not contain free iron. Remembering that it is the presence of free iron that puts stainless steel cable at risk of corrosion, wolfram simply does not possess the same molecular components and thus, the same risks.

If tungsten was dipped in passivating acids, by way of comparing it to stainless steel cable, it might erode the material to the detriment of its strength and integrity.

What’s more, galvanized steel cable likewise does not require passivation because galvanized cable, by design, contains an added layer of zinc. This protective layer of elementary material provides comparable oxidation resistance for galvanized steel cable that’s similar to that which is achieved with passivated stainless steel cable.

These industries generally possess moisture-rich environments that put stainless steel cable in danger of corrosion were it not passivated. Moreover, anywhere oxygen is present, stainless steel cable performs best when passivated.

Passivation does not affect the structural integrity of the stainless steel because the process only affects a negligible amount of surface material. When in doubt, consult your cable design engineer to ensure that the cable application under consideration requires or benefits from passivation.

Wire rope and cable are each considered a “machine”. The configuration and method of manufacture combined with the proper selection of material when designed for a specific purpose enables a wire rope or cable to transmit forces, motion and energy in some predetermined manner and to some desired end.

Two or more wires concentrically laid around a center wire is called a strand. It may consist of one or more layers. Typically, the number of wires in a strand is 7, 19 or 37. A group of strands laid around a core would be called a cable or wire rope. In terms of product designation, 7 strands with 19 wires in each strand would be a 7×19 cable: 7 strands with 7 wires in each strand would be a 7×7 cable.

Materials Different applications for wire rope present varying demands for strength, abrasion and corrosion resistance. In order to meet these requirements, wire rope is produced in a number of different materials.

Stainless Steel This is used where corrosion is a prime factor and the cost increase warrants its use. The 18% chromium, 8% nickel alloy known as type 302 is the most common grade accepted due to both corrosion resistance and high strength. Other types frequently used in wire rope are 304, 305, 316 and 321, each having its specific advantage over the other. Type 305 is used where non-magnetic properties are required, however, there is a slight loss of strength.

Galvanized Carbon Steel This is used where strength is a prime factor and corrosion resistance is not great enough to require the use of stainless steel. The lower cost is usually a consideration in the selection of galvanized carbon steel. Wires used in these wire ropes are individually coated with a layer of zinc which offers a good measure of protection from corrosive elements.

Cable Construction The greater the number of wires in a strand or cable of a given diameter, the more flexibility it has. A 1×7 or a 1×19 strand, having 7 and 19 wires respectively, is used principally as a fixed member, as a straight linkage, or where flexing is minimal.

Cables designed with 3×7, 7×7 and 7×19 construction provide for increasing degrees of flexibility but decreased abrasion resistance. These designs would be incorporated where continuous flexing is a requirement.

Selecting Wire Rope When selecting a wire rope to give the best service, there are four requirements which should be given consideration. A proper choice is made by correctly estimating the relative importance of these requirements and selecting a rope which has the qualities best suited to withstand the effects of continued use. The rope should possess:Strength sufficient to take care of the maximum load that may be applied, with a proper safety factor.

Strength Wire rope in service is subjected to several kinds of stresses. The stresses most frequently encountered are direct tension, stress due to acceleration, stress due to sudden or shock loads, stress due to bending, and stress resulting from several forces acting at one time. For the most part, these stresses can be converted into terms of simple tension, and a rope of approximately the correct strength can be chosen. As the strength of a wire rope is determined by its, size, grade and construction, these three factors should be considered.

Safety Factors The safety factor is the ratio of the strength of the rope to the working load. A wire rope with a strength of 10,000 pounds and a total working load of 2,000 pounds would be operating with a safety factor of five.

It is not possible to set safety factors for the various types of wire rope using equipment, as this factor can 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, shock load applied, 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 and the facilities for inspection.

Fatigue Fatigue failure of the wires in a wire rope is the result of the propagation of small cracks under repeated applications of bending loads. It occurs when ropes operate over comparatively small sheaves or drums. The repeated bending of the individual wires, as the rope bends when passing over the sheaves or drums, and the straightening of the individual wires, as the rope leaves the sheaves or drums, causing fatigue. The effect of fatigue on wires is illustrated by bending a wire repeatedly back and forth until it breaks.

The best means of preventing early fatigue of wire ropes is to use sheaves and drums of adequate size. To increase the resistance to fatigue, a rope of more flexible construction should be used, as increased flexibility is secured through the use of smaller wires.

Abrasive Wear The ability of a wire rope to withstand abrasion is determined by the size, the carbon and manganese content, the heat treatment of the outer wires and the construction of the rope. The larger outer wires of the less flexible constructions are better able to withstand abrasion than the finer outer wires of the more flexible ropes. The higher carbon and manganese content and the heat treatment used in producing wire for the stronger ropes, make the higher grade ropes better able to withstand abrasive wear than the lower grade ropes.

Effects of Bending All wire ropes, except stationary ropes used as guys or supports, are subjected to bending around sheaves or drums. The service obtained from wire ropes is, to a large extent, dependent upon the proper choice and location of the sheaves and drums about which it operates.

A wire rope may be considered a machine in which the individual elements (wires and strands) slide upon each other when the rope is bent. Therefore, as a prerequisite to the satisfactory operation of wire rope over sheaves and drums, the rope must be properly lubricated.

Loss of strength due to bending is caused by the inability of the individual strands and wires to adjust themselves to their changed position when the rope is bent. Tests made by the National Institute of Standards and Technology show that the rope strength decreases in a marked degree as the sheave diameter grows smaller with respect to the diameter of the rope. The loss of strength due to bending wire ropes over the sheaves found in common use will not exceed 6% and will usually be about 4%.

The bending of a wire rope is accompanied by readjustment in the positions of the strands and wires and results in actual bending of the wires. Repetitive flexing of the wires develops bending loads which, even though well within the elastic limit of the wires, set up points of stress concentration.

The fatigue effect of bending appears in the form of small cracks in the wires at these over-stressed foci. These cracks propagate under repeated stress cycles, until the remaining sound metal is inadequate to withstand the bending load. This results in broken wires showing no apparent contraction of cross section.

Experience has established the fact that from the service view-point, a very definite relationship exists between the size of the individual outer wires of a wire rope and the size of the sheave or drum about which it operates. Sheaves and drums smaller than 200 times the diameter of the outer wires will cause permanent set in a heavily loaded rope. Good practice requires the use of sheaves and drums with diameters 800 times the diameter of the outer wires in the rope for heavily loaded fast-moving ropes.

It is impossible to give a definite minimum size of sheave or drum about which a wire rope will operate with satisfactory results, because of the other factors affecting the useful life of the rope. If the loads are light or the speed slow, smaller sheaves and drums can be used without causing early fatigue of the wires than if the loads are heavy or the speed is fast. Reverse bends, where a rope is bent in one direction and then in the opposite direction, cause excessive fatigue and should be avoided whenever possible. When a reverse bend is necessary larger sheaves are required than would be the case if the rope were bent in one direction only.

Stretch of Wire Rope The stretch of a wire rope under load is the result of two components: the structural stretch and the elastic stretch. Structural stretch of wire rope is caused by the lengthening of the rope lay, compression of the core and adjustment of the wires and strands to the load placed upon the wire rope. The elastic stretch is caused by elongation of the wires.

The structural stretch varies with the size of core, the lengths of lays and the construction of the rope. This stretch also varies with the loads imposed and the amount of bending to which the rope is subjected. For estimating this stretch the value of one-half percent, or .005 times the length of the rope under load, gives an approximate figure. If loads are light, one-quarter percent or .0025 times the rope length may be used. With heavy loads, this stretch may approach one percent, or .01 times the rope length.

The elastic stretch of a wire rope is directly proportional to the load and the length of rope under load, and inversely proportional to the metallic area and modulus of elasticity. This applies only to loads that do not exceed the elastic limit of a wire rope. The elastic limit of stainless steel wire rope is approximately 60% of its breaking strength and for galvanized ropes it is approximately 50%.

Preformed Wire Ropes Preformed ropes differ from the standard, or non-preformed ropes, in that the individual wires in the strands and the strands in the rope are preformed, or pre-shaped to their proper shape before they are assembled in the finished rope.

This, in turn, results in preformed wire ropes having the following characteristics:They can be cut without the seizings necessary to retain the rope structure of non-preformed ropes.

They are substantially free from liveliness and twisting tendencies. This makes installation and handling easier, and lessens the likelihood of damage to the rope from kinking or fouling. Preforming permits the more general use of Lang lay and wire core constructions.

Removal of internal stresses increase resistance to fatigue from bending. This results in increased service where ability to withstand bending is the important requirement. It also permits the use of ropes with larger outer wires, when increased wear resistance is desired.

Outer wires will wear thinner before breaking, and broken wire ends will not protrude from the rope to injure worker’s hands, to nick and distort adjacent wires, or to wear sheaves and drums. Because of the fact that broken wire ends do not porcupine, they are not as noticeable as they are in non-preformed ropes. This necessitates the use of greater care when inspecting worn preformed ropes, to determine their true condition.
