Locked Coil Strand Cables
On a tied arch bridge vertical or crossed hanger assemblies offer a visually astonishing load transfer path from the deck to the arch.
Locked coil strand cables. The inner layers are made of round wires twisted helicoidally over a straight core. The best customizable rope for structural applications. A core helical strand. Locked coil strand cables locked coil strand cables fig 4 are helical shape strands composed of two types of twisted wires.
Full locked coil ropes are a unique assembly of a classic wire rope core consisting of multiple helically twisted wires with on top of that on the outside one or more layers of profiled z shaped wires that interlock with each other. And a number of outer layers formed by z shaped wires arranged helically figure 21 1d. Locked coil or spiral strand assemblies with a broad choice of end terminations are at your design disposal. Trust grainger to offer a variety of heavy duty cables and cable locks that can help prevent theft and vandalism in the shop on the jobsite or in the parking lot.
The outer layers are arranged the same way using helicoidally z or s shaped wires. The outer z shaped layers give the rope a smoother profile which allows for better clamping. Material high tensile stainless steel wire inox 1 4401 aisi 316 to din en 10264 4 1 4436 1 4462 on request modulus of elasticity 130 kn mm 10 kn mm. Pick up adjustable locking cables that can protect construction equipment from theft and unauthorized use and keep trailers generators power tools and ladders securely locked.
The maximum diameter of fully locked coil cables available in the market is of the order of 180 mm. The interlocking z shaped wires provide a superior barrier against external corrosive elements and reduce internal corrosion while giving this product a desirable aesthetic and modern look. Commonly used in stadium roof ring cable and radial cable construction and available for both galfan coated spiral strand cables and galfan coated locked coil cables up to 180mm diameter. This interlocking outer layer creates a dense rope assembly with high strength stiffness and an aesthetically pleasing smooth outer surface.
Eventually one or more layers of wedge shaped wires. Redaelli s locked coil ropes are reknown for their strength rotation resistance and reduced stretch. Cables are pre stressed and measured under load to give a high accuracy dead length and to ensure the correct resistance in your structure once installed. In addition when it comes to the corrosion protection bridon bekaert offers various schemes to meet the lifetime and maintenance targets you have in mind.
Full locked coil strands have a high metallic cross section this guarantees a higher breaking load and elastic axial stiffness with a smaller reduced diameter. En 12385 10 full locked coil strand strands are made of shaped high strength wires which are coated with galvanized or galfan then helically spun around a core. Full locked coil strands.
