🔍 Key Concepts

• Wire rope vs. fiber rope (hemp/manila) – which is more sensitive to improper handling and needs more careful maintenance? • Bending radius / sheave diameter – what general relationship is usually recommended between sheave size and wire rope diameter? • Typical care practices – how often is lubrication really needed, and are metal sheaves always lined?

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which option reflects a general principle of handling and preserving wire rope life, rather than a very specific number or procedure that might vary? • Compare how easily damaged wire rope is compared with hemp or manila rope when kinked, crushed, or run over sharp edges. • Think about maintenance: would once-a-year lubrication be enough for wire rope that may be working in a salty, wet, or dirty environment?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which statement matches standard good practice in industry, not just a possible or occasional practice. • Eliminate choices that give overly exact figures or rigid schedules that are likely to depend on conditions and manufacturer recommendations. • Decide which option reflects the fact that wire rope is strong but more susceptible to internal damage that isn’t easily seen, and therefore needs particularly careful handling.

It needs better care than hemp or manila.
