Crane Ropes
General Characteristics of Crane Ropes
Ropes should be lubricated regularly. Crane ropes should be run without load for 1-2 hours before use to ensure that the wires are in place. Especially in rotation resistant ropes, impacts and bumps should be avoided, and in short lengths, the cut edges should be lubricated before use.
The following points are important in Crane Ropes;
- Required rope carrying capacity for loads,
- Resistance to abrasion,
- Resistance to fatigue,
- Resistance to bending,
- Resistance to corrosion.
