Selection of wire rope slings
(1) Corresponding professional steel wire ropes should be selected for elevator and aviation steel wire ropes
(2) Corresponding special steel wire ropes should be selected for high-lift construction tower cranes, etc.
(3) Steel wire ropes for cranes, piling machines, drilling rigs, electric shovels, excavators and other machinery with low lift require wear resistance, fatigue resistance, and good impact resistance, and structural steel wire ropes such as 6*29Fi or 6*36SW can be used
(4) For equipment operating in high temperature environment or requiring large breaking load, steel wire rope with metal core can be selected
(5) Steel wire ropes for shipping, ships, fisheries, and tying timber are required to be corrosion-resistant and soft, and Class A galvanized steel wire ropes with structures such as 6*19, 6*24, and 6*37 can be used
In addition, the tensile stress of the steel wire rope should be selected according to the load used and the specified safety factor, and the appropriate strength level should be selected, and high strength should not be blindly pursued. In short, according to the characteristics of the equipment and the working situation, the appropriate wire rope should be selected to ensure safety, prolong service life and improve economic benefits.
