FOREWORD
Usha Martin Limited is a Speciality Steel and Steel
product focused group with diverse product range in
both steel as well as wire rope.
It is one of the largest wire rope manufacturer in the
world. It is also the only wire rope company in the
world that has a totally integrated business model to
convert iron-ore into steel wire ropes as well as build
its own wire-drawing and rope-making machinery.
The steel wire ropes ranges from 1.5 mm to 140mm
in size, 1370 to 2160 N/mm2 in grade and
encompassing all constructions and all configurations
like Non-Compacted, Compacted, Plasticated, Flattened
Strand, Locked Coil ropes and slings.
Usha Martin ropes conforms to all specifications in
the world, viz. ISO, DIN, BS, IS, API, EN, AS, GOST,
JIS and approved by all leading organisations, viz.
ABS, API, DNV, LLOYDS, NKK.
Usha Martins rope works is one of the cleanest in the
world accreditated with TPM excellence award from
Japan Institute of Plant Maintenance.
It is one of the very few companies that has approval
by OTIS for its worldwide Elevator rope supply.

FUNDAMENTAL CONSTRUCTIONS
FILLER WIRE
Inner layer having half the number of wires

as the outer layer
Small filler wires, equal in number to the

inner layer, are laid in the valleys of the inner
layer.
One diameter of wire in the inner layer.
Two diameters of wire alternating large and

small in the outer layer.
The large outer-layer wires rest in the valleys

and the smaller ones on the crowns of the
inner layer.
Combination of above constructions.

Eg Seale-Filler, Warrington-Seale etc.
CROSS LAY
WARRINGTON
EQUAL LAY
Single-Wire centre with six wires of the

same diameter.
SINGLE LAYER
Equal number of wires in each layer.
All wires in each layer are of the same

diameter.
Large outer wires rest in the valley between

the small inner wires.

Note:
Seizing wire recommendation
- for ungalvanised rope use annealed wire
- for galvanised rope use soft, zinc-coated wire.
- Diameter of wire: 8 - 24 mm = 1 mm
26 - 36 mm = 1.6 mm
38 - 56 mm = 2 mm
- Recommended seizing length = 1 x d min or 10 wraps

Note:
Improper fixing of clamps may lead to safety hazards.
For proper clamping practice, refer applicable standards or OEM
recommendations.

HANDLING THE RIGHT WAY
STORAGE
n
Must be stored in a well ventilated shed.
Use spindle through the reels for loading / unloading or put

the rope on a swift with brake arrangement.
Free from moisture, dust and fumes.
Suitable lubricant to be applied every

3 months to the outer layers.
Allow clearance for free rotation of reel when the rope end
is pulled.
Reel containing ropes to be rolled through 90 degree

after every 3 months
Maintain constant tension during haul off.
Prevent crossing of rope laps on the reel.
Protect wooden reels from the attack of termites.
Avoid possible kink, which is a permanent damage to a rope.
In no case the reels should be put on ground or

uncemented floor.

Typical Example
Impregnation of IWRC
Full plastic impregnation

Reduces wire contact stress & interstrand nicking
Retains lubrication inside & does not require
in-service lubrication
Prevents ingress of solid abrasives & reduces
internal corrosion
Provides greater and better wear & abrasion resistance
Minimizes bend stress over sheaves and increases
fatigue life
Ideally suitable for mining application

n
n
n
Rope diameter reduction >7% of NRD, only due to

external wear.
Rope diameter reduction >3% of NRD for rotation
resistant ropes and >10% for other ropes due reasons
other than external wear.
For single layer (6 and 8-strand) and parallel-closed
ropes if number of visible broken wires exceed 4% of
total load bearing wires in all outer stands of the rope,
over a length 6d or 8% in 30d.
For rotation resistant ropes if number of visible broken
wires exceed 2 over a length 6d or 4 in 30d.
Concentrated close group of broken wires in a length
of 6d or in one strand.
Wire break in the strand valley indicate internal rope
deterioration requiring closer inspection of the rope,
two or more valley breaks in 6xd requires discard.
Broken wires at, adjacent to, the termination, require
the termination to be remade by shortening the rope,
otherwise the rope shall be discarded.
Localised distortion, damage, crushing, kink, loop,
birdcage formation.
Localised core or strand protrusion.
Localised rope diameter reduction or lay variation
associated with waviness.
Collapsed core or complete fracture of one strand.
Sign of severe corrosion or pitting.
Damage due to heat.
RECOMMENDED
DOS & DON'TS

DOS
n
Lubricate ropes with good quality acid free and moisture

free lubricant.
Regularly inspect the sheaves, rollers or pulleys - the

life of a rope largely depends on their conditions.
Inspect ropes and fittings/terminations periodically.
DONTS
n
Do not allow ropes in store to deteriorate
Do not mishandle ropes when uncoiling or unreeling &

allow kinks to form.
Do not use Langs lay with a swivel
Do not use a rope with too large groove diameter on

drums and pulleys.
Do not cut a rope without seizing.
Do not use rope which is not sufficiently flexible for the

size of drum or pulley.
Do not load the rope beyond its safe working load.

Reduction of safety factor may jeopardise not only rope,
but also equipment, job and men.
Note:
Remember - Care in handling , installation, and careful inspection gives more life and
enormous dividends.
Note:
For discard of ropes other than crane wire ropes relevant code/standard
should be referred.
n The rope should be examined by a competent person who should always
refer relevant code/recommendation/standard for deciding rope discard.

ROPE CUTTING PROCEDURE

The Wrong Way to Clip Wire Rope

Usha Martin Ropes are supplied with special lubricant

Periodic Lubrication during usage is necessary to derive

In-use lubrication pays rich dividend

HANDLING THE RIGHT WAY

Must be stored in a well ventilated shed.

Use spindle through the reels for loading / unloading or put

Free from moisture, dust and fumes.

Suitable lubricant to be applied every

Reel containing ropes to be rolled through 90 degree

Maintain constant tension during haul off.

Prevent crossing of rope laps on the reel.

Protect wooden reels from the attack of termites.

Avoid possible kink, which is a permanent damage to a rope.

In no case the reels should be put on ground or
