A standard 6x36 construction is very robust but has limited resistance to rotation and may cause complications because of twisting and eventual kinking of the wire rope. The 35xk7 low rotation rope has the best resistance to rotation and twisting. It is very rugged in the compacted form; as such, it is an excellent rope for use in A&R operations. The Spin 9KP rope has improved rotation resistance compared to the 6x36 type. Yet, it retains much of the abrasion resistance thanks to the nine compacted strands. It is a good option when the rope is for meant for dedicated use in A&R applications only.

KTL Offshore Value Added Services: KTL Offshore can provide a Load vs Twist evaluation to demonstrate The
how the proposed wire rope will rotate and twist when loaded and lowered to a certain water depth. steel reels supplied with the wire rope are critical, especially when used in beach pull operations. KTL Offshore can provide the strength and design calculations to assess strength and backtension requirements, as well as modify and strengthen existing reels to meet the same criteria.

Redaelli Steel Wire Rope manufacturing low rotation wire rope with an individual reel weight of up to 500 metric Tons the heaviest rope in the world!
KTL Offshore maintains an impressive inventory of these two brands of wire rope.
A compact 35xk7 low rotation wire rope is the ideal choice for single-drum hoisting applications. Most HLM cranes use this type for the main and auxiliary hoist ropes. For paired rope systems, robust non-rotation resistant types such as the 8- or 9-strand compacted wire rope with plastic impregnation are more suitable.
08 KTL Offshore Pte Ltd
Most derrick crane barges use the older, standard wire rope designs for crane applications. However, many operators are now replacing these designs with high performance wire rope such as compacted 6- and 8-strand, and compacted 35xK7 low rotation wire rope. This is because the extreme crushing forces exerted on the boom rope in particular under conditions of multilayer coiling. Compacted 6-strand wire rope is very robust. Trials by one of the worlds largest offshore construction and derrick crane barge operators have proven that the use of high performance wire rope greatly extends the rope life.
The standard 6x25Fi construction (left) may be replaced by the compact 6x36 type (right) for increased rope performance.
Compact 35xK7: ideal for main, auxiliary and whip (fly) hoisting and pendant rope applications.
Compact 6x36: highly rugged construction that is suitable for boom (luffing) hoist duties.
Compact 8-strand with plastic impregnation: 8 strands and plastic layer increase fatigue, crushing and shock absorbing ability. It is ideal for boom (luffing) hoist duties.
Compact 9-strand with plastic impregnation: added fatigue and crushing resistance makes it the ultimate rope for boom (luffing) applications.
KTL Offshore Value Added Services: We have qualified wire rope inspectors to carry
destructive and destructive testing for bell wire.
well as the right testing conditions for reliable and accurate test results. Our wire rope inspectors are highly trained in this area.

*Refers to the ANSI/API 9A/ISO 10425 Classification for wire rope constructions. Strength-to-mass ratio is the CSBL divided by the total mass of a 20-metre long sling at the maximum available diameter. CSBL is the term used to denote sling strength for slings made from multiple component wire rope while MBL is used for slings made from a single component wire rope. # Sling should be de-rated by 20% when used with a swivel.
Where: MBL = Minimum Breaking Load of KimSwage sling using a splicing efficiency of 0.9
Where: CSBL = Calculated Sling Breaking Load according to PM 20 CSBL = CRBL x 1.00 for resin socketed slings CRBL = Calculated Rope Breaking Load
Similarly, when the sling is used where the horizontal angle (called the sling angle) o is less than 90 , the load in the sling will increase. This increase must be factored into the WLL calculation.
WLL =
Where: MBL = Minimum Breaking Load of KimSwage sling Sin A = Minimum horizontal sling angle in degrees EB = Bend efficiency according to IMCA M179 and PM20
When considering the eyes of the KimSwage sling at the lifting point, each eye will comprise two legs. This means that the eye has twice the strength of the body. When D/d = 1.0 (where EB = 0.5), there is no need to de-rate the sling. However, at D/d values below 1.0, the sling must be de-rated but it is good practice not to use a bending ratio less than this at the eyes to avoid crushing damage on the sling. It is important to note that under no circumstances should the sling be used or allowed to come into contact with a D/d of 0.5 or less.
When using a basket hitch all KimFlex slings should be de-rated according to the following calculation:
WLL =
Where: CSBL = Calculated Sling Breaking Load of KimFlex sling Sin A = Minimum horizontal sling angle in degrees EB = Bend efficiency according to IMCA M179 and PM20
When considering the eyes of the KimFlex sling at the lifting point, each eye is comprised of 12-parts of wire rope laid in parallel. Because of this arrangement, at D/d = 0.75 or greater, there is no need to de-rate the sling. However, at D/d values below 0.75, the sling must be de-rated but it is good practice not to use a bending ratio less than this at the eyes to avoid crushing damage on the sling. It is important to note that under no circumstances should the sling be used or allowed to come into contact with a D/d of 0.5 or less.
For resin socketed cable laid slings, since ET = 1.0 the effects of bending are immediate and the sling must be de-rated using the equation above regardless of the D/d used. When considering the eyes of the cable laid sling at the lifting point, each eye will comprise two legs. This means that the eye has twice the strength of the body. When D/d = 1.0 (where EB = 0.5), there is no need to de-rate the sling. However, at D/d values below 1.0, the sling must be de-rated but it is good practice not to use a D/d less than 1.0 at the eyes to avoid crushing damage on the sling. Both IMCA M179 and PM 20 stipulate that under no circumstances should the cable laid sling be used or allowed to come into contact with a D/d of 0.5 or less.

When considering the eyes of the KIMLOCK cable laid sling at the lifting point, each eye is comprised of two legs therefore providing twice the strength as the body of the sling. Thus at a D/d = 1.0 where EB = 0.5, there is no need to de-rate the sling. At values below 1.0, the sling must be de-rated but it is good practice not to use a D/d less than 1.0 at the eyes to avoid crushing damage on the sling. IMCA M179 and PM 20 both stipulate that under no circumstances should the cable laid sling be used with a D/d of 0.5 or less.

*The above data applies only to KimFlex slings manufactured by KTL Offshore and tested using a Crosby swivel. Braided slings and swivels made by other manufacturers have different manufacturing parameters and design characteristics which may result in different twist behaviour.
Cable laid and KimSwage slings are made in either a left hand or right hand direction of lay and have no inherent resistance to rotation. As the sling is loaded, the wire rope will turn in the opposite direction of lay and may eventually cause twist. CABLE LAID (hand spliced and KIMLOCK) and KIMSWAGE slings should not be used with a swivel as this may cause the sling to unlay leading to catastrophic failure.
*6x36 refers to the ANSI/API 9A/ISO 10425 Classification for wire rope constructions. Strength-to-mass ratio is the CGBL divided by the total mass of a 20 metre long grommet.

Inspection, Examination And Discard Criteria - Heavy Lift Slings And Grommets
IMCA M179/PM20 and ASME B30.9 provide a guideline for the inspection, examination and discard of cable laid and braided slings and grommets. KTL Offshore recommends that the guidelines detailed in this section be used. An inspection is defined as a visual check carried out by a competent person, either independent or representing the sling or grommet owner. A thorough examination is defined as being more detailed than an inspection and is carried out by a competent person independent of the owner of the sling. It is recommended that: an inspection is carried out prior to each use.
a thorough examination is carried out at least once every six months if the sling or grommet is in use. a thorough examination is carried out before putting the sling or grommet into long term storage. a thorough examination is carried out if the sling or grommet has been in storage for more than six months and will be put
to use.
Discard Criteria
Wire rope is a complex piece of machinery and therefore no precise rules can be provided as to when a sling or grommet should be replaced. There are many variables and all should be considered. ASME B30.9-2003 specifies that a wire rope should be replaced if any of the following conditions are present. 1. Broken Wires: the table below lists the number of broken wires that signals discard for the sling or grommet:
Remove when the following Number of Broken Wires is Observed Sling/Grommet Type Per Lay

2. Metal loss: wearing or scraping of one-third the original diameter of the outside individual wires. 3. Distortion: kinking, crushing, birdcaging or other damage that distorts the rope structure. Check for wires or strands that are pushed out of their original position in the rope. 4. Heat damage: any metallic discolouration, fused wires or loss of internal lubricant caused by exposure to heat. 5. Damaged end attachments: cracked, bent or broken end fittings. 6. Corrosion: severe corrosion of the rope or end attachments which has caused pitting or binding of wires. Light surface rust does not substantially affect the sling or grommet strength. 7. Pulled eye splices: any evidence that the eye splices have slipped, tucked strands have moved or pressed sleeves have serious damage. For cable laid slings, the tail splices should be at least 3 times the sling diameter in length. 8. Unbalance: a very common cause of damage is the kink caused by pulling through a loop or even by using in basket hitch around an object too small for the sling or grommet body (low D/d). The presence of a kink will make the sling or grommet unbalanced and reduce the strength.

Notes: 1. The grommet MBL has already factored in a splicing efficiency. 2. MBL is attained as long as D/d at the bearing points is greater than or equal to 3. 3. For lower bending ratios, the MBL must be de-rated. Please consult KTL Offshore. 4. For engineered lifts the SWL may be calculated according to DNV Rules for Marine Operations, Part 2 Chapter 5, January 1996.

Point Loading
Crosby shackles may be point loaded at the bows. At the pins, point loading is also acceptable but Crosby recommends an 80% spread over the pin as best practice.
39 KTL Offshore Pte Ltd
Side Loading
Side loading of Crosby shackles is allowed, although the WLL must be reduced according to the following table:
Side Loading Reduction Chart (from Crosby Catalogue) For Screw Pin and Bolt Type Shackles Only Angle of Side Load from Vertical In-line of shackle
0 In-line 45 from In-line 90 from In-line
0 0 0
For other brands of shackles, side loading may not always be recommended - please check their latest product brochures for more information.
Complete Equipment
The shackle comes complete as a tested assembly consisting of the shackle bow, bolt (pin), nut and cotter pin. The cotter pin acts as a safety pin to prevent the nut from disengaging should the load cause the pin to rotate. The cotter pin should always be present during use of the shackle. Although Crosby Wide Body shackles have serialised identification numbers on the bows and pins, it is not necessary for the number on the bow and pin to match each other on any individual shackle.
(Above) Anchors are made in China with 3 rd party inspection and witness of testing from Singapore.

Towing Bridles
KTL Offshore Provides The Complete Towing Bridle - Tested And Certified
The strength of the towing components should be compatible with one another to ensure a successful towing operation. The following factors have been compiled by representative ocean-towing contractors and marine surveyors and may be used as a guide to ensure compatibility: Component
Chafe chain Bridle legs Towing pendant Weak link Chain spring Nylon rope spring Shackles

1.3x MBL of tow wire 1.3x MBL of tow wire 1.0x MBL of tow wire 0.9x MBL of tow wire 1.3x MBL of tow wire 2.3x MBL of tow wire WLL = 1.0x MBL of tow wire
KTL Offshore Is Able To Supply: Wire rope towing pennants Triplate Chafe chain and towing chain Open, closed and mooring spelter sockets Nylon and chain springs Connecting shackles (bow type recommended) Tugger and retrieval wires Proof load testing of individual components Smit brackets
Towing bridles may be all chain (for heavy towing such as semi submersible rigs) or a combination wire rope chafe chain system (example above). The safety factor is usually around 3:1 and at the apex (by the triplate) the included angle should not exceed 60o.

Spelter Sockets
Spelter sockets have a 100% efficiency when resin socketed therefore the full strength of the wire rope is achieved. KTL Offshore uses sockets from Crosby (USA) and Ropeblock (Holland). For pennants, either closed spelter sockets are used or the more compact and lighter G-517 M-Line/ Short Bow socket (Pee Wee or Gold Nose type).
The M-Line/Short Bow sockets have the additional advantage of a streamlined shape they slide easier over the tailboard or roller (no hang-ups) and they wind easier on the drum as compared to the closed spelter socket.

KimPlasma And Puget Sound Rope (PSR) Synthetic Rope Solutions The Benefits In Lifting
The use of KTL Offshores KimPlasma synthetic rope slings and grommets holds many advantages and during lifting when compared to using steel wire rope: wire rope
Reduced weight - removes self-weight penalty of steel Crane capacity not limited by weight of rigging. Installation and rigging set-up times drastically Retains 100% strength in sea water Easily inspected, externally and internally Easily repaired and spliced in the field High fatigue and abrasion resistance

KimPlasma Eye-and-Eye Slings and Grommets as a Replacement for Synthetic Round Slings
KimPlasma slings can be used to synthetic round slings in almost any application. The advantages of the KimPlasma range as compared to round slings either polyester or HMPE round slings are as follows:
FULL INSPECTABILITY Every strand of every inch of the KimPlasma sling is visible and therefore inspectable there are no hidden components. Highest resistance Abrasion Nylon or Polyester cover tears easily a cause for immediate discard or thorough inspection. Nylon or Polyester cover prevents visual inspection of the core of the sling a dangerous condition during repeat lifting.
Plasma rope strands have been heat treated (recrystallized) and have a polyurethane coating that gives a tough, abrasion resistant surface finish the toughest available. Easy Re-Splicing The KimPlasma hand splicing can be done in the field re-splicing of damaged sections will ensure longevity of the sling. High Strength-to Weight KimPlasma slings and grommets have the highest strength-tomass ratio of any sling on the market. Low Elongation KimPlasma slings and grommets have elongation properties at WLL of around 1-2%, equivalent to steel wire rope. Solid Cross Section KimPlasma slings and grommets have a simple 12 strand cross section comprised of relatively large diameter strands no small strands that break easily. The construction is also easy to open up by hand, facilitating inspection.
Round slings cannot be repaired in the field and once damaged, cannot be re-used. There is no resplicing- a costly investment.
Round slings are made up of multiple, small strands this is inherently subject to rapid fatigue and mechanical damage.
KimPlasma slings are safer and more economical to use than round slings!

Application InformationShackles
Crosby Range Of General Lifting Shackles
Round pin shackles can be used in tie down, towing, suspension or lifting applications where the load is strictly applied in-line. No side loading is allowed. Screw pin shackles can be used for applications involving side-loading circumstances. Reduced Working Load Limits are required for side-loading applications. While in service, do not allow the screw pin to be rotated by a live line, such as a choker application. Bolt-type shackles are recommended for permanent or long term installations and where the load may slide on the shackle pin, causing the pin to rotate.
D-shaped shackles are used mainly for single leg slings whereas anchor shackles are used on multiple leg slings.
QUICK-CHECK Markings
All Crosby shackles, except for G-2160, incorporate markings forged into the product at 45 from vertical. These allow a quick check on the approximate angle of a two-legged hitch or the angle of a single leg hitch when the shackle pin is secured. And the pull of the load is off vertical or side loaded, thus requiring a reduction in the working load limit of the shackle.
Crosby shackles may be side loaded. However, the shackle WLL must be reduced according to the table above.

Note: All MBL values shown include provision of a 0.90 splicing efficiency. When spliced using a standard synthetic rope splicing method, no further de-rating of the rope MBL is required. For use in basket hitch, the full strength will be attained at a D/d = 3.0 or higher. MBL and SWL figures provided above are in accordance with the Cordage Institute CI-1500-02 (May 2006) from the USA which reports the strength as spliced strength. According to BS EN ISO 2307:2010, theses figures can be increased by 10% as the splicing efficiency is not factored in to the rated strength using this European standard.

KTL Offshore Value Added: Composite Ropes offer several advantages over Polypropylene ropes:
Higher
strength therefore a lighter and smaller diameter rope can be used (U.V.) resistance which leads to longer life fatigue life and ability to withstand the harsh offshore environment
KTL Offshore Offers The Following 8-Strand Plaited Composite Ropes From Lanex (Made In Europe):
TITAN one of the strongest ropes available on the market! Titan is an advanced, plaited 8-strand rope with one of the highest tensile strengths available on the market. Due to the polyester filaments on the surface of the rope, it has excellent abrasion resistance. Titan ropes are suitable for the harshest offshore environments. Does not float on water.
CRUISER Excellent strength-to-mass ratio! Cruiser has a very high strength as compared to polypropylene ropes and superior abrasion resistance properties. It is highly U.V. stabilized leading to long life in the offshore environment. Very good selection as a replacement for PP ropes to reduce weight, size and overall cost. Floats on water.
All LANEX ropes are supplied with soft eyes with canvas protection at both ends, 6-tuck splicing, colour tracers and Germanischer Lloyds (GL) or Lloyds Register (LR) certification.
KTL Offshore Stocks A Huge Range Of Nylon And Polypropylene Ropes From The Korean Manufactures Such As DSR, Dong Yang And Manho.
100% Nylon Ropes Excellent Shock absorbing ability! Nylon ropes have very high strength and have excellent shock absorbing properties due to their high elasticity. Nylon also has good abrasion resistance and is not damaged by oil and most chemicals. U.V. stability is good. Nylon ropes do not float in water.
Polypropylene (PP) Ropes All purpose synthetic rope! Polypropylene ropes are very light in weight and therefore float on water and are popular in the industry due to their low cost. They have excellent resistance to most chemicals but are affected by sunlight (poor U.V. resistance and it is best to store them out of direct sunlight).
KTL Offshore stocks Superdan (DSR), Mega PP (Dong Yang) and Hi-Man (Manho) polypropylene ropes.
All Nylon and PP ropes are supplied with soft eyes with canvas protection at both ends, 6-tuck splicing, colour tracers and Lloyds Register (LR) certification.
Typical Application:
Mooring and towing lines, messenger and pick-up lines. For Anchor Handling Vessel use in demanding conditions. Composite ropes offer a higher performance option than PP or Nylon ropes due to their superior abrasion, chemical resistance and fatigue properties. Titan ropes offer the best heavy duty performance followed by Cruiser
PES: high tenacity polyester Polys: 30% HDPE (Polyethylene) and 70% HDPP (polypropylene) *TCLL Value: the load expressed as a % of the breaking strength at which the rope will fail at 1000 cycles in a tension-fatigue test.
