3.1.3  Wire Rope Inspection

3.1.3.1 

Wire rope inspection should be conducted according to the manufacturer’s recommendations 
or accepted industry standards. 

ACTUAL 

DIAMETER

CORRECT MEASUREMENT

INCORRECT MEASUREMENT

THE WIRE ROPE MUST BE REPLACED IF THE DIAMETER MEASURES LESS THAN 

THE MINIMUM DIAMETER GIVEN BY THE ROPE MANUFACTURER

EXAMPLE - A

3

4

" WIRE ROPE HAS A MINIMUM DIAMETER OF 

45

64

" (0.7031")

FIGURE #8 - WIRE ROPE DIAMETER

CAUTION

Remember to always wear the proper protective equipment when handling the wire rope.

3.1.3.2 

Inspect the entire length of wire cable for bent or crushed areas, broken or cut wires, 
corrosion and other damage. If any defect or damage is found the cable must be replaced.

3.1.3.3 

Inspect end connections and fittings for corrosion, kinking, crushing or other damage. If any 
corrosion or damage is found the cable must be replaced.

3.1.3.4 

Check the wire rope diameter for signs of decreased area (see fig. #8). Diameter decrease 
may be signs of wear and internal degradation in the wire rope. Generally, wire ropes 
are manufactured larger than nominal diameter. When placed in service for the first time, 
diameter can reduce slightly. Minimum diameter specifications can be obtained from the rope 
manufacturer.
