equipment
1 Scope
This standard specifies the terms, definitions, classifications, markings, ordering
content, dimensions, technical requirements, inspection, testing, acceptance methods,
packaging, quality assurance period, transportation, marking, quality certificate, safe
use, maintenance requirements, for the steel wire ropes for temporarily installed
suspended access equipment.
This standard applies to galvanized steel wire ropes for temporarily installed suspended

3 Terms and definitions
The terms and definitions, which are established in GB/T 8706 and GB 19155, apply to
this document.
3.1
Slightly untwisting of strands in rope
When cutting off one end of the wire rope, loosen the outer strands, which are about
3 lay lengths long. Tap lightly; the strands will scatter downward slightly, but they
can still be basically closed into the original shape after twisting hard.
4 Classification and marking
4.1 Classification
4.1.1 There are eight typical wire rope structures: 4X25Fi-FC, 4X31WS-FC, 6X19W-
WSC, 6X19S-WSC, 6X31WS-FC, 6X31WS-WSC, 6X36WS-FC, 6X36WS-WSC.
Steel wire ropes of other structures can also be supplied, upon negotiation between the
supplier and the buyer.
4.1.2 The nominal tensile strength of steel wire ropes is divided into six types: 1870MPa,
1960MPa, 2060MPa, 2160MPa, 2260MPa, 2360MPa.
4.2 The marking code of the steel wire rope shall comply with the provisions of GB/T
8706.
5 Order contents
The contract for ordering, according to this standard, shall include the following main
contents:
a) Standard number;
b) Product name;
c) Wire rope structure;
steel wire, that is, 30d (g/m2).
7.1.1.6 The surface of the steel wire shall be smooth and clean, without defects such as
scratches, flattening or hard bending.
7.1.2 Fiber core
7.1.2.1 The fiber core shall comply with the provisions of YB/T 4452. It may adopt
natural fiber core, synthetic fiber core or composite material core.
7.1.2.2 The fiber core of the steel wire rope may contain a small amount of anti-rust
lubricating oil.
7.1.3 The lubricating oil applied on the surface of the wire rope shall be anti-friction,
anti-corrosion, anti-rust lubricating oil. If it needs other types of oil products, please
specify in the order contract.
7.2 Steel wire rope
7.2.1 Laying quality
7.2.1.1 The laying method of the steel wire rope shall be right alternating lay (sZ). The
lay direction of the center strand is opposite to that of the outer strands. The steel wire
size of the strand core, in the steel wire rope, shall be able to ensure sufficient support,
so that the steel wire wrapped in the outer layer can be twisted evenly. For strands and
steel cores in ropes, which are made of steel wires of the same diameter, the nominal
diameter of the central steel wire and the central strand shall be appropriately increased.
7.2.1.2 Each strand in the steel wire rope and each steel wire in each strand shall be
tightly laid together; the strands shall not collapse, protrude or loosen. There must be
no fold marks, protrusions, broken, crushed and disorderly crossed steel wires in the
strands. There shall be no defects such as scratches, flattening or hard bending on the
surface of the steel wire.
7.2.1.3 The joints of steel wires in the steel wire rope shall be reduced, as much as
possible. When the wires have to be connected during twisting, the wires allow
electrical connection. The spacing between joints of the same steel wire strand shall not
be less than 20 m.
7.2.1.4 The lay length of the strands in the wire rope and the lay length of the steel wires
in the strands shall be uniform, throughout their length. The lay length of the steel wire
rope shall not be greater than 6.7 times the rope diameter; the lay length of the outer
layer of the strands shall not be greater than 9.5 times the strand diameter.
7.2.1.5 Each strand of the outer layer of the steel wire rope shall be pre-deformed and
tightly twisted around the rope core in a helical shape. It shall be slightly loose, with
little residual torsion. The surface is flat and must not be wavy, when unfolded and
8.2.2.2 The measurement shall be carried out, on the straight line of the wire rope under
the condition of no tension. At two points 1 m away from the rope end, at least 0.5 m
apart, measure a diameter value at each point, in a direction perpendicular to each other.
The average value of the four measurements is taken as the actual diameter of the wire
rope.
8.2.2.3 The difference -- between the diameters measured in mutually perpendicular
directions at the same point -- is the ellipticity value.
8.3 Inspection of wire rope flatness
Touch the surface of the wire rope with your hands; it feels smooth; it is flat without
any obvious fluctuations and hard bends.
8.4 Inspection of slightly untwisting of strands in rope
When cutting off one end of the wire rope, remove the strands of outer layer, about 3
lay lengths long; tap lightly; each strand will spread out slightly downwards; but after
twisting hard, they can still be basically surrounded into the original shape. In this case,
the wire rope is in the state of slightly untwisting of strands.
8.5 Inspection of wire rope residual torsion
Bend at an angle of approximately 90°, at approxi...
