🔍 Key Concepts

• Wire rope safety requirements before lifting operations • Common types of damage that make wire rope unsafe • Why any visible defect can reduce the safe working load

💭 Think About

• If you see one type of damage on a wire rope, what does that usually tell you about its overall condition? • Are inspections supposed to look for a single problem, or for all conditions that could make the rope unsafe? • Think about what a careful pre-lift inspection would include when people and equipment are at risk.

✅ Before You Answer

• List at least three common defects that make a wire rope unfit for service (e.g., distortion, surface damage, broken wires). • Ask: would a safe inspection ignore any obvious visible damage type? • Confirm that pre-use inspections aim to catch all safety‑critical defects, not just one kind.
