GOST 3070-88 Double Lay Steel Wire Rope

GOST 3070-88 · General fastener standards

This is an informational translation of a Russian national standard. The Russian original is authoritative.

GOST 3070-88 applies to double lay steel wire ropes with point contact between wires in TK-type strands, with a fiber core.

The standard does not apply to ropes used on lifting cranes.

Ropes are classified as follows:

By application:

  • hoisting G

By mechanical properties:

  • grade VK,
  • grade V,
  • grade 1.

By type of wire surface coating:

  • uncoated wire,
  • galvanized wire, depending on zinc coating weight: S, Zh;

By rope lay direction:

  • right-hand,
  • left-hand L

By combination of lay directions of rope elements:

  • cross lay;

By lay method:

  • untwisting,
  • non-untwisting N;

By manufacturing accuracy:

  • normal,
  • increased T.

By degree of balance:

  • straightened R,
  • non-straightened.

Notes:

  1. Ropes whose breaking force is shown to the left of the bold line are made of uncoated and galvanized wire. In this case, a rope made of galvanized wire of group Zh with a diameter of 13.0 mm and a marked group of 1960 N/mm (200 kgf/mm²) is made by agreement between the manufacturer and the consumer.

Ropes whose breaking force is shown to the right of the bold line are made of uncoated wire; by agreement between the manufacturer and the consumer, ropes may be made of galvanized wire.

  1. Rope diameters greater than 10 mm are rounded to whole numbers or to 0.5 mm.

  2. The rope diameter is calculated to ensure clearance between strands.
