Mining Ropes
General Characteristics of Mining Ropes
Rope wires are in at least 180 kg/mm2 resistance value. Ropes may be manufactured as uncoated lubricated or galvanized lubricated. Ropes with 8 strands may be used when elasticity and resistance are in same importance.
For the Mining Ropes following points are important;
- Resistance to abrasion,
- Resistance to bending,
- Resistance to crashing,
- Resistance to corrosion.
