As an important building material, steel strands can be divided into left-twisted and right-twisted types according to the twisting direction, and they play a crucial role in their respective applicable fields.
Applications of left-lay steel strands：
Left-handed wire ropes usually have a certain degree of softness and elasticity, and can adapt to different bending radii. Therefore, they are usually used in occasions such as lifts, cranes and conveying equipment that require frequent bending.
In some specific mechanical devices, in order to match the movement direction and torque transmission requirements of other components, left-lay steel strands are selected. For example, in some equipment with special rotation direction requirements, left-lay steel strands can better achieve the coordination of power transmission and mechanical movement.
In the mooring steel strand layout of some offshore platforms, some left-lay steel strands are used. This is considering the comprehensive effects of factors such as water flow, wind and waves on the steel strands in the marine environment. Left-lay steel strands may have better adaptability and stability in such a complex environment.
Applications of right-lay steel strands：
Right-lay wire ropes are usually stronger and more durable than left-lay wire ropes, so they are usually used in situations such as lifting and traction that need to bear heavy loads.
In most building structures, such as high-rise buildings and bridges, right-lay steel strands are a more commonly used choice. This is because their mechanical property data are more mature and widely used in the design and specifications of the construction industry. Engineers are more familiar with the performance of right-lay steel strands, which is convenient for structural calculation and design.
In the shaft hoisting equipment of mines, right-lay steel strands are widely used. They can meet the requirements of hoisting equipment for the strength, toughness and stability of steel strands, ensuring the safe hoisting operations of ores, personnel, etc.
