Dyform®– 6 Wire Rope

Category: High Performance Low Rotation Wire Rope, Wire Rope
Type: Wire Rope

Product Information

Longer Rope Life:

The smooth periphery of Dyform-6 reduces bearing pressures which gives longer rope life and lessdown time. The Dyform process increases the steel surface area by 100%. This increased surface area gives higher abrasion resistance, thus reducing rope and sheave wear.

Characteristics

Greater Strength:
The superior strength of Dyform-6 is a direct result of the Dyform process which increases the amount of steel and reduces the amount of voids in the strands. The exceptional strength of Dyform-6 allows this product to meet or exceed the strength requirements
of the Extra Extra Improved Plow Steel grade of wire rope. This increased strength provides greater lifting capacity while prolonging rope life.
Increased Flexibility:
The manufacturing process of Dyform-6 ropes provides increased flexibility which makes rope installation much easier. Lower internal stresses of Dyform-6 ropes offer longer bending fatigue life than standard sixstrand ropes.
Improved Crush Resistance:
The compact strand construction of Dyform-6 ropes provides for much higher resistance to crushing. This improves the service life of the rope, especially in those applications which have multiple layers on the drum.
Superior Lubrication:
Dyform-6 ropes are thoroughly lubricated at stranding and closing with an exclusive Bridon American product, which provides excellent lubrication throughout the life of the rope. Each wire is completely coated at the time of manufacture to ensure that the friction between all wires is reduced to an absolute minimum.

Dyform-6 ropes should be used wherever increased strength or longer service life is desired. It is especially beneficial in those applications where the rope is subjected to heavy use. It has proven superior in such applications as boom hoist ropes, clam shell ropes, load hoist ropes, ore bridges and winch lines. Rugged Dyform-6 provides performance superior to standard six-strand ropes in all applications, especially those which are extremely abusive.

NOT FOR AIRCRAFT USE. (“Aircraft Cable” has become an accepted industry term for small diameter 7×7 and 7×19 construction wire rope intended for industrial and marine application.) Read important warnings and information.

WARNING: Any warranties, expressed or implied, concerning the use of this product apply only to the nominal strength of new, unused wire rope. All equipment using this product must be properly used and maintained. Wire rope must be properly stored, handled, used and maintained. Most importantly, wire rope must be regularly inspected during use. Damage, abuse or improper maintenance can cause rope failure. Consult the AISI Wire Rope Users Manual, ASME or ANSI Standards, before usage. Wire rope removal criteria are based on the use of steel sheaves. If synthetic sheaves are used, consult the sheave equipment manufacturer. WARNING!
