18 Increases Rope Performance and Equipment Productivity |
|
- A
resilient 18x19 multi-strand construction and specially selected
wire tensiles provide the best strength/performance combination,
improving flexibility and rope fatigue life.
- The
Dy-Pac strand compaction process increases the steel area of the
individual strands to produce a rope with greater strength, increased
lifting capacity and improved rotation resistance.
- A
greater steel area in the rope results in higher crush resistance
and significantly enhanced multi-layered drum spooling.
- A
smooth outer strand profile improves rope wear resistance, reduces
sheave and drum wear, and allows the rope to run more efficiently
on high speed hoisting lines.
- Greater
contact area between each strand reduces inter strand nicking,
which is common for multi-strand constructions, thereby increasing
flexibility under load and improving security and performance.
- Specially
formulated lubrication increases rope performance, reduces corrosion
and minimizes environmental impact due to fly-off.
- Well-marked
core tracers make it easy to identify Dy-Pac 18 high performance
ropes.
- Full
technical support allows WRI customers to make the correct Dy-Pac
rope selection, obtain the relevant installation, inspection and
maintenance procedures, and receive the necessary training.

18 Reduces Operating Costs and Increases Profits |
|
- Reduced
overall operating costs as a result of significantly enhanced
rope performance.
- Reduced
equipment downtime as result of fewer rope change-outs.
- Lower
equipment maintenance costs as a result of reduced sheave and
drum wear.
- Lower
inventory costs as a result of reduced purchase requirements.

| Note:
Rotation resistant ropes can be used with a minimum working load limit
of 5:1, in accordance with ASME B30.5, but perform best when used
with higher working load factors. Breaking load values are subject
to a minus tolerance of 2.5% |
