8 strands 8×19S+IWRC 12mm elevator steel wire rope EN 12385-4

8×19S+IWRC

Structural Composition

    ●    8×19S: It indicates that the wire rope is composed of 8 strands, with 19 wires in each strand, and the structure is of the Seale type (S). The Seale structure is characterized by thicker outer wires and thinner inner wires, which endows it with good wear resistance and compression resistance.

    ●    IWRC: It represents that the rope core is an independent wire rope core, which is twisted by multiple steel wires. This kind of steel core can enhance the compression resistance and high-temperature stability of the wire rope, and significantly improve the overall tensile strength of the wire rope.

Performance Characteristics

    ●    High Strength: The structure of 8 strands and 19 wires, combined with the steel core, gives the wire rope a high breaking tensile force, enabling it to bear a large load and making it suitable for occasions with high strength requirements.

    ●    Good Wear Resistance: The thicker outer wires of the wire rope allow it to effectively resist wear when in contact with and rubbing against other objects, reducing the risk of wear and breakage of the wires and extending its service life.

    ●    Resistance to Extrusion and High Temperature: Due to the adoption of the IWRC steel core, the wire rope has good resistance to extrusion and can withstand a certain amount of external pressure. In a high-temperature environment, it can also maintain good stability and is not easily affected by temperature changes in terms of performance.

    ●    Good Flexibility: Compared with some thicker and stiffer wire ropes, 8×19S+IWRC, while ensuring strength, also has a certain degree of flexibility, making it convenient for operations such as bending and winding during use.

Application Areas

    ●    Elevator Industry: It is often used as the traction rope of elevators, providing reliable tensile support for the lifting of elevators and ensuring the safe and stable operation of elevators.

    ●    Lifting and Hoisting Operations: In equipment such as cranes and tower cranes during heavy object lifting operations, 8×19S+IWRC wire ropes can be used to bear the weight of heavy objects and ensure the safety of hoisting operations.

    ●    Industrial Field: In industrial machinery such as mine hoisting equipment and oil drilling equipment, it can be used for operations such as lifting and traction, and can adapt to harsh working environments and high-load operation requirements.

    ●    Construction and Bridge Engineering: In construction, it can be used for the lifting and hoisting of materials; in bridge construction, it can be used as a temporary support or auxiliary traction rope.
