Stainless Steel Wire Rope Tensile Strength

And here is a simple comparison of these materials.

Stainless steel wire rope tensile strength.

This is used where corrosion is a prime factor and the cost increase warrants its use. All ropes of the same size grade and core offer somewhat similar minimum breaking force characteristics and weight per foot though they do differ depending on the construction type and materials used. Our wire ropes are available in a wide range of diameters tensile strengths and materials including iron steel galvanized improved plow steel ips and stainless steel t304 and t316. Normally stainless steel wire rope is made of 304 305 or 316.

Rope diameter minimum breaking strength safe load weight in mm lb f kn lb f kn lb m ft kg m 1 4. W nr 1 4401 w nr 1 4404 uns s31600 aws 162. Astm a313 astm a580 bs 970 bs 2056. Better corrosion resistance and non magnetic properties than 302 304 stainless.

We also offer aircraft cable fitting services. For straightened and cut lengths the minimum tensile strength will be be approximately 90 of the values listed in the table. The 304 material as the most common type is magnetic with excellent corrosion resistance and strength compared with galvanized steel wire ropes. Weighs approximately 0 111 lb per foot.

This data is for spooled wire. Cable or wire rope is fabricated from individual wires put together in a uniform helical arrangement to form what is called a strand. Groove industrial 1 4 inch stainless steel t304 wire rope products are manufactured to the highest standards to endure tough conditions. Stainless steel cable provides slightly lower tensile strength but greater resistance to corrosion.

Different applications for wire rope present varying demands for strength abrasion and corrosion resistance. In order to meet these requirements wire rope is produced in a number of different materials. Choose from our selection of stainless steel wire including over 1 000 products in a wide range of styles and sizes. Spring temper values are in accordance with astm a 313.
