Wire Rope Python ® Super 8 for Overhead Cranes Shown is Super 8 V (compacted) 8-strand fatigue resistant construction compacted design to increase strength (Type V) flat outer wires for optimum sheave contact (Type V) plastic coated core helps prevent inner wire breaks permanent lubricated core Main Applications: Super-8 is the classic 'upgrade' rope for all overhead crane types to increase the rope's fatigue life. The 8-strand construction provides an excellent combination of flexibility, fatigue life, and abrasion resistance. Also used in looping- or accumulator tower applications. Available in right regular lay (RRL) AND left regular lay (LRL) Rope Characteristic: 8-strand high performance overhead crane wire rope with a plastic coated core. This special engineered hard plastic prevents metal to metal contact between outer- and inner strands and greatly reduces internal, non-detectable, wear and abrasion resulting in increased fatigue life, plus it provides for permanent core lubrication. Type 'V' is compacted for increased surface contact area between rope and sheave thus reducing sheave and drum wear. Super 8 is up to 30% stronger than regular 6-strand EIPS ropes. Check listings for details. Python ® Super 8 is NOT rotation resistant or non-rotating Standard: DIN 2078/3051 where applicable -14- Do NOT use Python® Super 8 wire rope attached to a swivel. The rope WILL unlay resulting in an unsafe condition. Block Twisting (Cabling) will occur when used exceeding certain lifting heights. Call for advice
Wire Rope Breaking Strengths Note: The maximum CAPACITY, WORKING LOAD LIMIT (WLL), or LINE PULL of the rope usually is 1/5 of the below stated values. For specific information consult the standards applicable to your rope application. Python ® Super 8 Overhead Crane Wire Rope Construction: 8 x 25 Filler 8-strand overhead crane wire rope with a plastic coated core to prevent inner undetectable fatigue breaks. The plastic coating also increases fatigue life and ensures permanent core lubrication. Type Super V is a compacted rope for better abrasion resistance and increased strength. Python® Super-8 is available in right- and in left lay configurations to adopt to the corresponding drum groove direction. Furthermore, using right- and left hand rope on the same crane results in a rope system which is very stable against block twisting.
