* * * * * * * * Fiber cores are ropes made from fibers formed into yarns, then into strands and finally into the finished core form. There are two general types of fiber: natural vegetable material, such as sisal, manila and cotton and synthetic filaments, such as polypropylene or polyethylene. Steel cores may be an independent wire rope (IWRC) or, in the case of small diameter ropes and some rotation-resistant ropes, a wire strand core (WSC). These steel cores provide more support than fiber cores to the outer strands during the rope’s operating life. Steel cores resist crushing, are more resistant to heat, reduce the amount of stretch, and increase the strength of the rope. * In regular lay ropes, the wires in the strands are laid in one direction, while the strands in the rope are laid in the opposite direction. The result is that the wire crown runs approximately parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rope. These ropes have good resistance to kinking and twisting and are easy to handle. They are also able to withstand considerable crushing and distortion due to the short length of exposed wires. This type of rope has the widest range of applications. * The reason for left hand or right hand lay is to accommodate the different winch designs from various manufacturers. The end of the winch to which the rope is anchored and the direction of winch loading each effect the decision of which lay is the correct lay. The incorrect lay will result in rapid wear of the rope, increased number of broken wires and difficulty in maintaining an orderly laying of the rope onto the winch drum. Has any class member ever experienced problems with a FSWR when trying to wind it onto a winch drum? The most probable cause is that it was the wrong direction lay for the winch! * * The responsibility with determining the weight to be lifted cant be shifted onto the crane operator, its too late then. That needs to be determined well in advance to a degree of accuracy commensurate w
