Selecting the correct frame stay bar system plays a significant role in determining the cycle life of cables and hoses placed inside the system. The following table details comparison results from extensive testing done to determine the effects that the frame stay bar systems have on cable jacket wear.

Wide Support Nylon Glass-Fiber Reinforced

ABRASIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF CABLES Depending upon cable sheath and frame stay materials.

Narrow Support Nylon Glass-Fiber Reinforced

QUALIFIER: Data listed are results from an abrasion test— After 3 million cycles and a 10 mm relative movement between carrier frame stay and cable.

Nylon Frame Stay Special Material Long-Longitudinal Oriented Fiber

CABLE SHEATH MATERIAL: PVC — Polyvinyl chloride PUR — Polyurethane PETP — Polyethylenterephthalat

Frame Stay RS, RS1 & RS2 Aluminum - narrow

CONCLUSION: Long-term evaluation tests on cables with different sheath materials have conclusively answered the question regarding optimal stay material and design configuration for the most common sheath materials. KabelSchlepp offers numerous different frame stay types and materials so the customer can correctly address design, function and commercial considerations as they relate to each of the customer’s specific applications.

Frame Stay RMS & RV

Aluminum - wide

When selecting cables, also carefully consider the abrasive characteristics of the cable sheath material in conjunction with the material and type of frame stay.

Frame Stay LG Aluminum - bored

Without question, frame stay designs using aluminum alloy material supporting the cables have distinguished themselves as the “most cable friendly” designs.
