Application scope of plastic coated steel wire rope

Plastic-coated wire rope has a wide range of applications, including construction hoisting, marine applications, mine hoisting, offshore engineering, agricultural facilities, and the fishing industry. Its high strength and wear resistance make it ideal for bearing heavy loads and tensile forces. The plastic coating provides additional protection against harsh environments, extending its service life.

Major applications include:

Construction: Commonly used in wire ropes for lifting equipment and hoisting devices, such as cranes and tower cranes.

Mining: Suitable for use in mine hoist cages.

Marine: Suitable for use as anchor chains on ships.

Offshore: Also widely used in offshore engineering, for example, using 304 stainless steel plastic-coated wire rope for its corrosion resistance.

Agricultural: Suitable for use in the construction and maintenance of agricultural facilities.

Fishery: Suitable for use in fishing trawls.

Other: Also used in meat processing machinery.

Advantages of plastic-coated wire rope:

High strength: Able to withstand significant weight and tensile forces.
Abrasion Resistance: Provides excellent durability in daily use.
Corrosion and Erosion Resistance: The plastic coating on the surface protects the wire rope from environmental corrosion, extending its service life.
