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.
