structure of the rope cannot work loose.
The end connection of the wire rope has to be regularly examined (fractured
wires – corrosion – cracks in the sleeve – loose clamping screws etc.).
As end connections you are only allowed to use the following:
⇒Aluminium press-fit connections according to DIN 3093
⇒Splice connections according to DIN 3089 (uncovered)
⇒Rope clamps
Rope clamps (similar to DIN 43148); Rope connection
secured with additional rope clamp acc. to DIN1142
