Wire rope has advantages over chains such as being lighter weight, less susceptible to damage from jerks, and providing silent operation. Wire rope consists of multiple steel wires or strands helically wound around a core. Different core materials and strand constructions can provide characteristics like strength, flexibility, abrasion resistance, and fatigue resistance suitable for various applications. Proper selection of wire rope type, lay, and construction along with correct installation and maintenance can maximize rope performance and lifetime.
