STAINLESS STEEL CABLES
Stainless steel wire ropes are sets of stainless steel wires helically wound around a central wire forming strands. The strands are in turn wound around a core or core wire, usually metal, which forms multi-strand ropes. There are thus several types of ropes with different numbers of strands and wires.
Mobile cranes, ideal for indoor use. The mobile jib crane can lift loads ranging from 150 kg to 500 kg with a radius of action of around two metres. The mobile jib crane can be moved by means of all-terrain wheels, which allow it to move on any type of ground. The most commonly used model is the mobile jib crane with a triangular boom with a hollow profile that adapts to workshop conditions.
Drum cranes are the most common cranes, especially in the industrial sector. This type of crane is designed to move very heavy loads of up to several tonnes. They can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications. The jib crane is fixed with chemical anchors or with anchor rods and concrete blocks. The jib cranes are available with a triangular or inverted jib with a rotation range of 270° to 360° and a reach of up to 9 metres.
The wall-mounted jib cranes are equipped with a triangular or inverted jib, which reduces the headroom. The wall-mounted jib crane has the option of being motorised or manual with a 180° rotation. The wall-mounted jib cranes are suitable for individual use and avoid clutter in the work area. The lifting capacity of this type of jib crane ranges from 150kg to 4 tonnes with a standard reach of up to 8000mm.
To choose the right jib crane for your lifting application, you need to:
Know the environment in which you want to install your jib crane. This will allow you to choose between a fixed jib crane, a mobile jib crane or a wall-mounted jib crane.
Know the load you wish to lift with the crane. The weight will allow you to choose the necessary lifting capacity.
Know the maximum height and reach required to lift the load.
Know the type of jib crane you want : you can choose between an electric jib crane or a manual jib crane.
A design office is at your disposal to meet your lifting needs for your cranes and gantries. The design office will draw up an estimate according to your request. For further information, please contact our customer service.
On our website, we offer stainless steel wire ropes with 6 strands, 7 strands and a single strand stainless steel wire rope. All our stainless steel ropes have a metal core. These ropes are mainly used for architectural, guardrail, marine and industrial applications.
We offer stainless steel ropes type 316, which are corrosion resistant. Stainless steel cables have the particularity of being flexible and even extremely flexible for some. They are perfectly resistant to humidity and water and have a particularly long life span.
How to choose your stainless steel cable ?
To choose your stainless steel cable, you must :
Know the type of use you want to make of it to choose the rigidity of the cable (extremely flexible, flexible or compact). If you don't want any flexibility, a single strand stainless steel cable is the best choice. If you want a soft, slightly curved cable, choose a 7x7 stainless steel cable. Finally, if you want an extremely flexible cable, choose a 7x19 stainless steel cable which will be strongly curved.
Next, we need to know the breaking load we want in order to choose the right diameter for our cable. To do this, remember to check the sides of the crimped parts at the end of the cable.
Remember to check your stainless steel wire rope daily to ensure that there is no breakage, wear or deformation of the rope that could put you at risk. In case you notice any damage, please bring your stainless steel ropes to one of our workshops for inspection.
