Design factors have been established by OSHA, by ANSI,
by ASME, and similar government and industrial
organizations.
No wire rope should ever be installed or used without full
knowledge and consideration of the design factor for the
application.
The above is based on the "Wire Rope Safety Bulletin"
published by the "WIRE ROPE TECHNICAL BOARD."

For example, a design factor of "5" means that the minimum
or nominal breaking strength of the wire rope must be
DIVIDED BY FIVE to determine the maximum load that can
be applied to the rope system.

To determine the working load of a wire rope, the MINIMUM
or NOMINAL breaking strength MUST BE REDUCED by a
DESIGN FACTOR. The design factor will vary depending
upon the type of machine and installation, and the work
permitted. YOU must determine the applicable design factor
for your use.

The nominal breaking strength of wire rope should be
considered the straight line pull, which will ACTUALLY BREAK
a new, UNUSED, rope (with both rope ends 昀椀xed to prevent
rotation). The nominal breaking strength of the rope should
NEVER BE USED AS ITS WORKING LOAD.
