HIGH PERFORMANCE CRANE ROPES TECHNOLOGIES
POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES
ROPE COMPACTION
PLASTIC IMPREGNATION High performance plastic impregnation is designed to offer an internal cushioning layer to the inter-strand contact points especially between core to cover on multi-strand low rotation ropes improving bend fatigue and core service life. DYFORM BRISTAR Dyform Bristar ropes construction reduces sheave wear and point to point loading, which combined with the superior dynamic structural stability provided by the Bristar core, ensures exeptional performance.
DYFORM Bridon-Bekaert manufactures ropes using a unique Dyforming process that compacts the strandsas shown below. The smooth surface of the “Dyform” products provides improved rope to sheave contact leading to reduced wear on both rope and sheave. Increased cross-sectional steel area increases breaking load and improved inter - wire contact ensures that the rope will operate with lower internal stress levels resulting in longer bending fatigue life and lower costs.

MAX TECHNOLOGY Bridon-Bekaert manufactures ropes using rotary hammer swaging and a unique roller compaction process that compacts the outer surface shown. In comparison to traditional Dyform ropes the Max technology further improves rope to sheave contact and improved diameter stability leading to reduced wear on both rope and sheave. Further increased cross-sectional steel area provides a robust construction with high breaking force and excellent crush resistance. Improved inter-wire contact ensures optimum spooling performances offering maximum resistance to damage for exceptional service life in the most demanding multi-layer drum applications.
LUBRICANTS Ropes are like any other machine, and to achieve maximum operating life in service, lubrication must be applied. Bridon-Bekaert’s unequalled experience in the world of wire rope manufacyure and many years spent in the developments of specialist in service lubricants have been used in the formulation of the Brilube range of products. Brilube’s advanced formulation with proven performance helps to get the best from your rope.
