Outline and function of wire rope surface grease
Almost all wire ropes work in very harsh environment: wet environment, sun exposure, strong acid environment, strong rust and wear seriously affect the service life. In the process of production and use, the wire rope should be regularly oiled in order to strengthen the anti-corrosion performance of the wire rope and increase the mechanical lubrication coefficient of the wire rope and machinery equipment to reduce the wear of the wire rope.
Classification of wire rope
According to the section shape of wire rope: round wire rope and special-shaped wire rope.
Classification of galvanized steel wire rope
Galvanized wire rope is divided into two types: cold galvanized wire rope and hot galvanized wire rope.Hot dip galvanizing and cold dip galvanizing have this essential difference on the craft hot dip galvanizing is to rely on physical heat diffusion action to form coating, form iron and zinc compound first, form pure zinc layer successively on the surface of iron and zinc compound.
This section provides an overview for wire rope slings as well as their applications and principles.

Wire rope slings serve multiple purposes across industries:
Essential for lifting building materials and structural components, wire rope slings facilitate the construction and assembly of large structures efficiently.
In manufacturing, these slings are crucial for installing, moving, and maintaining heavy machinery, aiding in production line refurbishments and machinery upgrades.
On ships, wire rope slings are utilized for anchor operations and cargo handling, streamlining the movement and secure loading of containers at ports.
Wire rope slings consist of high-strength steel wire ropes, clasps for load attachment, and end loops for crane hook connections, assembled for maximum lifting efficiency.
The primary component, made of high-strength steel, selected for load requirements and environmental conditions.
Provide secure attachment points for loads, with common types including eye and sling hooks, chosen based on load shape and size.
A looped end secures the sling to lifting devices, typically reinforced for added safety and durability.
Selection criteria include sleeve material, rope composition, and working load to match application needs and ensure operational safety.
Chosen to enhance abrasion and corrosion resistance, with aluminum and copper as common options.
The steel wire rope's grade and alloy are selected based on the specific lifting requirements and environmental conditions.
Crucial for safety, the sling's design load capacity must not be exceeded, selected according to the weight and type of load.
Detailed descriptions of Satsuma processing, lock stopping, and the clip method illustrate the various ways to secure the rope ends, each with its advantages and specific applications.
