Components of Wire Rope
A typical wire rope consists of three basic components:
1.Wires.2.Strands, formed by wires,laid helically around a core.
3.Core, or Center.Three types of core are commonly used:
How To Measure Wire Rope Diameter?
The correct diameter of a wire rope is the diameter of a circumscribed circle that will enclose all the strands.You should make the measurement carefully with calipers.The illustrations show the correct and incorrect methods of measuring a wire rope’s diameter.
How to Uncoil and Unreel Wire Rope?
Great cares must be taken when uncoiling and unreeling the steel wire rope.Here are the illustration showing the correct methods of uncoiling and unreeling your prized steel wire ropes to avoid above damages:
1.Rotating shaft2.Unreeling stand
3.Rolling the reel.
On the highways today, you’re likely to see a growing use of high-tension cable systems to prevent cross-over collisions. The systems are proving themselves to save lives, be reliable and easily maintained. Consequently, more states than ever are approving their use.
Advantages
1. Low cost, Easy to install and repair
2. Less impact on accident car and the persons inside
3. Cable tension and Post space can be adjusted
4. Prevent vehicles from running off the road effectively
5. Absorb most sudden impact energy during collision
6. Can be reused after accident by somehow repairment
7. Anti-rust, anti-corrosion and anti-aging
8. Good looking for open scenic spots
3x7 Wire Rope for Cable Barrier
3x7-18/19mm galvanized steel wire ropes are commonly used in cable barrier systems. A 3x7 steel wire rope has three strands, each strand is made up of 7 identical wires wound around a center, meanwhile the wire ropes are galvanized for keeping the cable free of corrosion and rusting.
Technical Data for 3x7 wire rope:
Cable Barrier Installation
1.Cable numbers: three or four cables are commonly used,five or six cables are used for reinforced guard railings.
2.Space distance:posts often installed with spacing from 6.3 to 32.6 ft,the longer spacing the higher deflection distance.
3.Tensioning: Cables are fixed on the post and tightened to specific tension as per local environment.Normally the tensions values range approximately from 2,000lb to 9,000lb.
Packing details: 1000 meters steel wire ropes will be wrapped in wooden reel,or as customers' requirements.
Delivery details: shipment to be made within 20 days after receipt of payment.Our Showroom
