Stainless steel wire rope is an industrial rope made of stainless steel materials such as 201, 302, 304, and 316.Commonly used materials include SUS202, 301, 302, 303, 304, 304L, 316, 316L, 310S, etc. Among them, 304 is the most widely used, and 316 stainless steel has better corrosion resistance than 304 due to the addition of molybdenum element.
According to the rope core material: Stainless steel wire rope can be divided into fiber core (natural or synthetic) and metal wire rope core. The fiber core can reduce the friction between rope strands and steel wires and play a role in anti - corrosion, while the metal wire rope core has higher strength and stability.
The specifications are diverse, and common ones include 6×19, 7×19, 6×37, 7×37, etc. The diameter range is generally 0.15mm - 50mm. Among them, the price of 7×7 strands is relatively high.
It is widely used in coal, petroleum, metallurgy, chemical, shipbuilding, bridge, electric power, rubber, military, tourism, water conservancy, light industry and other industries. For example, in the port terminal, it is used for ship mooring and cargo handling; in the construction industry, it is used for high - rise building exterior wall cleaning and hanging baskets; in the medical field, it is used in the manufacture of medical devices.
