intro 

Wire rope is several strands of metal wire twisted into a helix forming a composite rope, in a pattern known as laid rope. Larger diameter wire rope consists of multiple strands of such laid rope in a pattern known as cable laid.

uses 

• Lifting and hoisting. PVC-coated wire rope is often used in lifting and hoisting applications, as the PVC insulation protects the rope from wear and tear, and makes it more resistant to corrosion.
• Safety restraints. PVC-coated wire rope is also used in safety restraints, such as lanyards and lifelines. The PVC insulation helps to protect the rope from abrasion and moisture, and makes it more visible in low-light conditions.
• Slings and straps. PVC-coated wire rope is also used in slings and straps, for lifting and moving heavy objects. The PVC insulation helps to protect the rope from wear and tear, and makes it more resistant to chemicals.
• Construction. PVC-coated wire rope is also used in construction, for applications such as anchoring scaffolding, supporting roofing materials, and suspending lighting. The PVC insulation helps to protect the rope from the elements, and makes it more durable.
• Marine applications. PVC-coated wire rope is also used in marine applications, such as mooring lines, anchor lines, and towing ropes. The PVC insulation helps to protect the rope from saltwater corrosion, and makes it more visible in low-light conditions.
