Notes:a) Filler wires are not regarded as load-bearing wires and are not included in the number of total wires in the outer strands.b) A broken wire has two ends (counted as one wire break)c) The discard criteria for ropes spooling on to multiple layer drums applies to deterioration that occurs at the cross-over zones and interference between wraps due to fleet angle effects and NOT to sections of rope which only work in sheaves and do NOT spool onto the drum.d) Twice the number of broken wires listed may be applied to ropes on mechanisms whose ISO classification is known to be M5 to M8e) d = nominal rope diameterf) All removal criteria are based on the use of steel sheaves.
