Crimping wire rope is a common way to create strong loops or terminations. Here’s a general guide, but always refer to the specific instructions for your crimping tool and ferrules/sleeves:
A wire rope sling is a lifting device made from wire rope that is formed into a loop or fitted with end attachments. These slings are used in various industries, such as construction, manufacturing, and maritime operations, to lift and move heavy loads.
At Aulone, we manufacture and export a complete range of specialty steel wire ropes designed for demanding industrial environments. With rich experience in wire rope production and a commitment to international quality standards, we serve global industries with custom-engineered, certified, and high-performance products.
The key difference between stainless steel and metal is that stainless steel is a specific type of metal, while “metal” is a broad category that includes many different types of metallic elements and alloys.
For heavy-duty hoisting, selecting the right wire rope is crucial to ensure safety, durability, and efficiency. Below are the most commonly used wire ropes for such applications:
The strongest type of wire rope depends on the application, such as lifting, towing, suspension, or drilling. The key factors that determine wire rope strength include tensile strength (breaking force), rotation resistance, fatigue life, and wear resistance. Below is a detailed breakdown of the highest-strength wire rope types:
Materials Needed:
Wire rope
Correct size ferrule (also called a sleeve)
End stop (optional, if needed for termination)
Wire rope cutter
Crimping tool or swaging tool (hydraulic or manual)
Measuring tape
Marker or chalk
Marine industry
Construction
Industrial applications
Transportation
Agricultural equipment
Fencing and security systems
A non-rotating wire rope is a type of wire rope designed to prevent or minimize rotation when it is under load. This is achieved through a specialized construction that counters the tendency of the rope to twist or rotate, a common issue in standard wire ropes under tension.
Determining the best manufacturer of electric wire rope hoists depends on your specific needs, such as load capacity, application, budget, and regional availability.
