Stainiess Steel wire rope
Stainless steel wire rope has distinct features:corrosion resistance,heatresistance,low magnetic property,etc.It is also used in the chemical industry,light electrical industry, fishery, aircraft, shipping, mining,medical service, etc., and carries out great accomplishments. Top-quality basic wires are necessary in order to produce high-performance wire rope, so we carefully choose the best quality material for our products.Our unique technology is able to release the peculiar features of the stainless steel from the products

Laying manner and direction
@
Generally speaking, there are two kinds of laying manners, ordinary lay and Lang's lay, except for some special wire ropes.
Ordinary lay is a laying method in which the laying direction of the strands is opposite to that of wire rope.The basic wires on surface run parallel with the axis of the wire rope. Basic wires on surface of the ordinary-lay wire rope have shorter contact area with the touching object,therefore,ordinary-lay wire rope is under the greater influence of friction. But on the other hand, it does not easily kink and is easy to handle, so this kind of wire rope has a wide range of application in various industrial field, such as machinery, constrnction, fishery, shipping, etc.
Lang's lay is a laying method in which the laying direction of the strands and the rope is the same. Basic wires on surface of the Lang's lay wire rope have longer contacting area with the touching object, therefore,it receives smaller damage caused by friction. This characteristic plus its superior flexibility adds longevity to the wire rope. So this wire rope is preferred to be used for cableway and mining . However,Lang's-lay wire rope must be handled with care since it tends to be undone and kink.Two kinds of laying methode-Z lay and S lay, combined with ordinary lay and Lang's lay result in four types of wire ropes, namely ordmary Z, ordinary S, Lang Z, Lang S. Ordinary Z is most widely used.
ordinary right-hand lay ordinary left-hand lay lang's right-hand lay lang's left-hand lay
Features
  1. Rust resistance: hardly rusts in the air under the normal temperature, and keeps brighmess.
  2. Conosion resistance against industrial chemicals and under the high temperature, scarcely incurs deterioration of the mechanical strength.
  3. Superior in strength and mechanical characteristics
  4. Low magnetic property. SUS3l6 especially has very low magnetic permeability.
