5 signs your wire rope may need immediate replacement

A wire rope can look “mostly fine” and still be unsafe under load. Regular inspection is essential, especially in lifting, marine and industrial applications.

Watch for:
• Broken wires
• Visible corrosion
• Kinking or crushing
• Reduction in rope diameter
• Deformation or damaged strands

When any of these signs appear, the rope should be assessed before further use. In lifting operations, small signs of wear can become serious safety risks.

K. & A. Synodinos SA supplies wire ropes, lifting and rigging equipment and provides technical services including installation, proof testing and maintenance of lifting installations.
