Know the origin of your steel wire rope and aircraft cable.

You can be sure that the steel wire rope and aircraft cable which carries our Domestic Wire Rope and Cable symbol is of the highest quality available in the world. All domestic wire rope and cable can be identified by the domestic manufacturer’s trademarked colored strand marking or by the domestic manufacturer’s special core marker.

Foreign wire rope and aircraft cable must have the foreign country’s name on the shipping reel.

CORE COLOR CODING
Domestic wire rope and cable may also be identified by special core marker materials used as a part of, or layered around, the core of the wire rope or aircraft cable.

Identification of the manufacturing source through core markers may be particularly useful in cases where color coding has not been applied to a strand. Additional information on a specific domestic wire rope manufacturer’s core color marking practices is available on request from that manufacturer.
