1. Heavier: The metal core increases the weight per unit length of the steel wire rope. 2. Slightly less flexible: Due to the more rigid overall structure, at the same diameter, its minimum bending radius may require to be larger, making it less flexible than the FC rope.
Read MoreHigher strength: The metal core itself is made of steel wire and can withstand a significant portion of the tension. Therefore, under the same diameter, the breaking tension of IWRC steel wire rope is approximately 7% - 15% higher than that of FC steel wire rope.
Read MoreBased on structural and functional features, mooring bollards can be divided into several types. Vertical bollards have a simple structure and are suitable for applications with lower force requirements. Single cross bollards offer better multi-directional load-bearing capabilities and have the wide......
Read MoreMarine mooring bollards are essential equipment on port docks and ship decks. As a core component of the ship mooring system, bollards play a critical role in securing vessels and resisting the impact of wind, waves, and currents. These sturdy metal components safely moor ships at berths through moo......
