The main disadvantage of Coated Stainless Steel Cable is that it is difficult to observe wire breakage. The coating of this type of Wire Rope covers the surface of the wire rope, and it is difficult to detect wire breakage with the naked eye, which increases the risk of use.
The advantages of Coated Wire Rope include good corrosion resistance and good wear resistance. Its corrosion resistance in the atmosphere, mine water, and seawater is 3.5 to 5 times the life of ordinary galvanized Steel Wire Rope, and its wear resistance is 1.5 to 2 times that of ordinary Steel Wire rope. In addition, Plastic Coated Cable also has good fatigue resistance and is suitable for various harsh environments.
