Wire rope, stainless steel 1.4401, in rings

• Made from the finest wire rope of stainless steel 1.4401 / AISI 316
• Torque-free and stress-free
• According to EN 12385-4

Advantages of torque-free and stress-free wire ropes:
1. The strands of the ropes are pre-formed. Cut ropes maintain their position without the need for securing the ends at the cut interface.
2. Since all strands are evenly stretched, the load is distributed uniformly across all individual wires in the rope.
3. The ropes have a low tendency to form kinks.
4. The unloaded wire rope is stress-free, as the wires have no pre-tension. Therefore, the ropes show little tendency to twist under load.
5. The ropes are characterized by exceptional flexibility.
6. Torque-free and stress-free ropes have a significantly increased lifespan compared to standard wire ropes.

Load capacity calculation:
The load capacity of the wire ropes is calculated from the minimum breaking force. This is divided by the safety factor required for the specific application.

Load capacity = Minimum breaking force / 6 (safety factor)

Construction:
A wire rope consists of a number of strands, which in turn consist of a number of wires, e.g.: 7 x 7 -> 7 strands with 7 wires each.

Important note:
The use of wire ropes must only be in accordance with accident prevention regulations and the related EN standards, such as 12385-4, 13414, and 15020.
