ALERION
Special wire ropes for elevators
Advantages of Alerion wire ropes
  • Long service life due to the increased number of wires in the rope
  • Higher damping capacity (better vibration absorption)
  • Higher elasticity caused by smaller diameters of wires
  • Reduced surface stress between the rope and pulleys because of doubled tensile strength

Steel wire ropes
Application of Alerion wire ropes
  • Rotation resistance
    Testing samples are loaded with up to 5% MBL creating conditions similar to those that occur when the rope is pulled during rope installation in order to define the number of turns. Standardized value shall not exceed 0.75 turns. This rotation rate will not have negative effect on performance properties
  • Elongation
    Testing sample is loaded with 3 – 8.5% MBL.
    Linear deformation of the wire rope section under the load (structural elongation) as well as linear deformation under no load (elastic elongation) are evaluated after 10 cycles of load
  • Fatigue life
    Fatigue testing includes calculating the number of broken wires appearing after 600,000 cycles of reverse bending as well as determining the number of cycles necessary for failure (wire rope break)
Services
Pre-stretching
  • Lower residual elongation
  • Higher modulus of elasticity
  • Much lower rotation moment
  • Efficient performance
Electromagnetic inspection
  • Nondestructive inspection is the only test providing total evaluation of damage level and residual operation time of a wire rope.
  • Nondestructive inspection allows to detect reduction of cross-sectional area of a wire rope, external and internal local damages and their location.

Service Center
From our experience, the better is the fit of a rope the longer is its service life. Specialists of the Service Center have already helped dozens of clients with selection and maintenance of wire ropes on different equipment from cranes to drilling rigs. Factors such as area of application, equipment features, operating conditions, etc. are taken into consideration during their work with new sites.

Specialists of the Service Center provide the following rope related services:
  • Rope selection for specific working conditions.
  • Advice on application features, rope installation and operation.
  • Designing special rope constructions (in cooperation with Technological Service).
  • Supply of pilot batches of products.
  • Selection of terminations and fasteners.
  • Technical support for rope installation at a client's site.
  • Control over rope operating life and calculation of guaranteed service life
  • Trainings.
    Company introduction
    АО "Severstal Wire Ropes" (part of the Severstal-metiz group of companies) is a Russian manufacturer of steel wire ropes. The product range of the company includes more than 100 types of wire ropes produced in accordance with domestic and international standards (EN and API).

    Customers choose our special wire ropes for:
    • Oil and gas producing industry
    • Mining
    • Production and maintenance of elevators
    • All types of cranes used in any manufacturing industry
    • Cableways
    • Electricity supply industry
    For each of these applications, we produce a separate product line of special ropes with unique technical performance and design.

    For production and maintenance of elevators, Severstal Wire Ropes produces 6-strand and 8-strand special Alerion® wire ropes. For extra high-rise constructions, we produce 8-strand 8x17 Alerion wire ropes with a metal core. Alerion wire ropes are flexible, strong and have a longer service life compared to the standard products.

    The Quality Management System of Severstal Wire Ropes is certified according to international standards ISO 9001:2015, 45001:2018 и 14001:2015. All manufactured products comply with Russian and European standards and have necessary quality certificates.
