Plastic Coated Steel Wire Rope
Plastic-coated (PVC or PU) steel wire rope is a type of wire rope that has a protective coating made of plastic material. This coating serves several purposes, including enhancing durability, providing resistance against corrosion, reducing friction, and improving handling.
The steel wire rope itself is composed of multiple steel strands twisted together to form a flexible and strong cable. By adding a plastic coating to this steel wire rope, its performance and lifespan can be significantly enhanced.
The plastic coating helps protect the steel wire rope from exposure to moisture, chemicals, and other environmental elements that could cause corrosion and degradation. This makes it suitable for various applications, particularly in outdoor and marine environments.
Additionally, the plastic coating reduces the wear and tear caused by friction, as it creates a smooth outer layer that minimizes contact with surfaces or other objects. This can result in better efficiency, increased lifespan, and improved performance of the wire rope.
Furthermore, the plastic coating can provide added safety benefits. It helps improve grip and handling, making it easier to grasp and manipulate the wire rope. The coating also helps reduce the risk of injury by covering any protruding wire ends, preventing accidental cuts or punctures.
Overall, plastic-coated steel wire rope offers a balance of strength, durability, and protection. Its unique characteristics make it a versatile option for various industries, including construction, marine, rigging, lifting, and many more.

1. When choosing wire rope should consider the safety factor, even if no broken, lifetime of the rope will be shortened. To load object, safety factor should be not less than 4:1, to load human, it must be more than 10:1.
2. Method of putting wire rope is the key before using, the right method can eliminate the stress inside the rope.
3. Never use wire rope overload.
4. Don’t make the wire rope touch the sharp corner when strapping or lifting, consider to use protector if need.
4. Multiple strands wire rope should be fixed when cut, prevent outer layer loose.
5. It should be scrapped when abrasion on outer layer, corrosion degree or broken wires exceed the specified value.
