elevator rope

11mm elevator rope

The 11 mm Chinese-made elevator wire rope with fiber core is designed for light to medium-duty lifting systems. It is typically manufactured in a 6x19 or 6x37 construction, consisting of six strands with 19 or 37 wires per strand. The nominal diameter of 11 millimeters provides a tensile strength between 65 and 75 kilonewtons, making it suitable for elevator cabins carrying up to 900 kilograms in 2:1 suspension systems. The fiber core at the center increases flexibility, reduces friction, minimizes cabin vibrations, and enhances smooth operation and service life of the rope.

The approximate weight per meter of the 11 mm wire rope ranges from 0.50 to 0.53 kilograms, and it is recommended for sheaves with a minimum diameter of 420 millimeters. The WLL Working Load Limit is approximately 500 to 600 kilograms, while the MBL Maximum Breaking Load ranges from 42 to 50 kilonewtons. These specifications ensure safe and reliable performance under continuous operation and intermittent loading, reducing the risk of damage due to excessive tension.

The outer wires of the 11 mm elevator wire rope are made of carbon steel with tensile strengths between 1570 and 1770 N/mm², providing high wear resistance. Elongation under tensile load is around 2 to 2.5 percent, and the recommended safet

8mm elevator rope

Elevator wire rope size 8 with fiber core is one of the most commonly used steel cables in light and medium-duty lifting systems. This rope is typically manufactured in a 6x19 or 6x37 construction, meaning six strands with 19 or 37 wires in each strand. The nominal diameter of 8 millimeters provides a tensile capacity ranging between 36 to 42 kilonewtons, making it suitable for carrying loads of 400 to 630 kilograms in 2:1 suspension elevators. The fiber core in the center increases flexibility, provides natural lubrication, and reduces vibrations during elevator operation.

The outer wires of the 8 mm elevator rope are usually made of carbon steel with tensile strengths between 1570 and 1770 N/mm², ensuring high wear resistance and durability. The approximate weight per meter of this wire rope is about 0.26 to 0.28 kilograms, and it is recommended for sheaves with a minimum diameter of 320 millimeters. The elongation under tensile load is around 2 to 2.5 percent, while the suggested safety factor is between 8 and 12. These specifications make the 8 mm fiber core wire rope a reliable choice for standard elevator applications with continuous operation.

PAWO F10 gustav wolf elevator rope

PAWO F10 structure of GUSTAV WOLF wire rope is specially designed for use in connecting elevator cabins that have high weight and portability. The structure of the F10 of the Gustav wolf wire rope is very similar to the structure of the F7s, with the difference that instead of using a Warrington weave string, it uses a Filler string in the core.
Due to the all-steel structure of the German Gustav wolf wire rope with the PAWO F10 structure, it has a very high tensile capacity, and compared to the hemp core structures such as the Gustav wolf PAWO F3 wire rope, PAWO F819S has more tensile capacity and less creep. In comparison with similar structures, it should be said that the structure of PAWO F7s has higher flexibility, but the structure of the German Gustav wolf PAWO F10 wire rope has higher resistance to stretching and creep.

PAWO F3 gustav wolf elevator rope

PAWO F3 construction of Gustav Wolf wire rope is a unique structure for this German brand, which has intermediate mechanical characteristics of steel core and hemp core wire rope. In fact, a middle layer and a strand with a 1X7 structure are used between the hemp core and the outer strands of PAWO F3 series Gustav Wolf wire rope. The hemp core of this structure is very thin from the Gustav tow wire and it is mostly used to increase the flexibility in use and to prevent the tow wire strands from being compressed during rotation on the elevator pulley.
