Steel wire rope plays an important role in deep-sea towing. As operating conditions and vessel size can vary widely, it is critical to select a suitable wire rope to warrant a safe and efficient passage.
Selecting the right steel wire rope for mooring is important for optimum performance and safety. It is crucial for oversized vessels whose numbers are increasing OCIMF strongly recommends the use of 6 × 36 class drawn galvanised wire rope with Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) as mooring lines. TEHO’s range of 6 × 36 class wire ropes strictly follows the EN10264-2:2002 standard for galvanisation, as well as the other OCIMF guidelines.
