What are the differences among Bright, Galvanized and Stainless Steel?
• Bright wire rope is fabricated from wires that are not coated. • Rotation Resistant Bright wire rope is designed to resist the tendency to spin or rotate under load. In general this rope is used as single part lines, or in situations where operating conditions require a rope that will resist cabling in a multipart system. The essential nature of rotation resistant rope designs impose certain limitations on their application and necessitate special handling requirements not encountered with other rope classifications. • Galvanized wire rope tests at approximately the same pulling strength as Bright, however it is zinc coated for corrosion resistance. In mild environments its an economical alternative to stainless steel. • Stainless Steel wire rope is made up of corrosion resistant steel wires and is therefore the highest quality wire rope available. While it tests at approximately the same pulling strength as Bright or Galvanized, it lasts the longest under harsh conditions such as sa
