The company makes cable-laid slings that can lift oil rig equipment of up 12,000 tonnes in weight. |
A fiber cable-laid rope is composed of three strands of hawser-laid rope, twisted right-handed. |
Right-hand rope must be coiled with the sun, and cable-laid rope against the sun. |
Hawser-laid rope is a right-handed rope, and cable-laid is therefore left-handed. |
Large ropes are distinguished into two main classes, the cable-laid and hawser-laid. |
Thus, cable-laid rope is like three small common ropes laid up into one large one. |
