СТБ EN 13411-3-2009

The length (h) of a soft eye from the ferrule to the bearing point of the eye shall be at least fifteen (15) times the nominal rope diameter.

NOTE 1    The width (h/2) of the eye with the rope under no load should be approximately half of its length, see figure 3.

In all other cases the rope end shall protrude by no more than one half of the rope diameter. In the case of ropes severed by a heat process the ferrule shall be positioned such that after pressing the rope end shall protrude from the ferrule by an amount no more than one rope diameter, i.e. only the annealed portion shall protrude.

Positioning of the ferrule before pressing shall ensure that the distance after pressing provides

a)    clearance between thimble and ferrule

b)    the thimble is secured within the eye (secured against the possibility of rotation within the eye or rolling out of the eye).

NOTE 2 Typically after pressing the clearance between the base of the thimble and the ferrule should be a approximately of 1,5 times the nominal rope diameter for a thimble without a point, and 1 times the nominal diameter for a thimble with a point unless specified otherwise by a competent person. See informative annex A for a specification of one design of turnback eye ferrule-secured termination.

СТБ EN 13411-3-2009

А.6 Matching wire rope to ferrule

Selection of the correct ferrule is to take account of: measured rope diameter; rope type (and core);

nominal metallic cross-sectional area factor of the rope.

Case 1

For single layer round strand ropes with fibre core and cable-laid ropes having a metallic cross-sectional area factor C of at least 0,283, a ferrule having a size number equivalent to the nominal rope diameter is to be selected from Table A.2.

Case 2

For single layer round strand ropes with metallic core and for rotation-resistant round strand ropes having a metallic cross-sectional area factor up to 0,487, a ferrule having the next larger size number than the nominal rope diameter is to be selected from Table A.2.

Case 3

For single layer round strand ropes with metallic core and for rotation-resistant round strand ropes and parallel-closed round strand ropes having a metallic cross-sectional area factor greater than 0,487 and up to 0,613 the ferrule is to be selected from Table A.2.

Case 4

For spiral strand rope having a metallic cross-sectional area factor |ac> of not more than 0,613 <ac], ferrules are to be selected having two size numbers larger than the nominal rope diameter, see table A.2. Two ferrules spaced two rope diameters apart are to be used per termination. After pressing a space is to be maintained between the ferrules.

5 Safety requirements and/or measures

5.1    Ferrule-secured system
5.1.1    General

The ferrule-secured system shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protection measures of this clause.

In addition the ferrule-secured systems shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100 for relevant hazards but not significant, which are not dealt with in this document.

The ferrule-secured system designer shall carry out type testing in accordance with 5.1.2.

The ferrule-secured termination system designer shall provide instructions on how to produce the ferrule-secured termination and/or the ferrule-secured endless loop.

The instructions shall at least cover those items given in 5.1.3 and be supported with a written declaration that the system has passed the type testing requirements of 5.1.2.

In the particular case of oval ferrules with tapered ends used in the securing of the turn-back eye or endless loop where the rope end is contained within the ferrule, the ferrule-secured system designer shall provide means whereby the position of the rope end before and after pressing can be ascertained. This shall not include verification by marking the rope. Only the parallel portion of a ferrule shall be considered load bearing.

5.1.2    Type testing
5.1.2.1 Sampling

Where the ferrule design follows a mathematical progression throughout a given size range, rope diameter shall be selected fortesting to represent the lower and upper quartiles of that range.

Where the ferrule design does not follow a mathematical progression throughout a given size range, each rope diameter within that range for which the system is designed shall be selected fortesting.

For each rope diameter selected as above, the rope grade shall be the highest for which the system is designed and at least three FSETs or three ferrule secured endless loops, whichever is the case, shall be tested.

NOTE 1 In the case of the FSET the number of tests is regarded as two when the test lengths have a FSET at both ends.

Additionally, sampling shall take into account whether the type of ferrule-secured termination is a turn-back eye or Flemish eye or whether it is an endless loop, as follows:

a)    Turn-back eye ferrule secured-termination

Testing shall be carried out on each of the basic rope types for which the system is designed. For each basic rope type, testing shall be carried out on ropes having the lowest and highest metallic cross-sectional area factors for which the system is designed.

NOTE 2 For the purposes of this standard there are four basic rope types, namely single layer rope, rotation-resistant rope, parallel-closed rope and spiral strand rope, refer EN 12385-2 for definitions.

b)    Flemish-eye ferrule-secured termination

Testing shall be carried out on single layer rope having the lowest and highest metallic cross-sectional area factors for which the system is designed.

c)    Ferule-secured endless loop

Testing shall be carried out on single layer rope having the lowest and highest metallic cross-sectional factor for which the system is designed

5.1.2.2    Tensile test

When tested in accordance with 6.2 the FSET shall sustain a force of at least 90% of the minimum breaking force of the rope.

NOTE A terminal efficiency of 90% is equivalent to a termination efficiency factor, Kj, of 0,9 which is used in the calculation of WLL for slings

When tested in accordance with 6.2 the ferrule-secured endless loop shall sustain a force of at least 90% of twice the minimum breaking force of the rope.

5.1.2.3    Fatigue test

When tested in accordance with 6.3 for 75 000 cycles followed by a tensile test in accordance with 6.2 the FSET and endless loop shall sustain a force of at least 80% of the minimum breaking force of the rope.

Additionally for Flemish eye ferrule-secured terminations of crane hoist ropes a further fatigue test shall be performed on an assembly comprising a solid thimble having a peripheral length equivalent to at least four rope lay lengths. When tested in accordance with 6.4 the ferrule-secured termination shall withstand a minimum of 1x10s cycles and not exhibit a complete strand fracture.

5.1.3 Instructions to be provided by the ferrule-secured system designer

The ferrule-secured system designer shall provide instructions on at least the following:

a)    preparation of the rope end;

b)    details of the rope(s) for which the system is designed;

c)    matching of the ferrule material and size to the rope diameter and type;

d)    positioning of the rope end;

e)    procedure for ferrule-securing, i.e. pressing the ferrule; t) alignment, condition and maintenance of the tooling;

g)    procedure for removal of fins;

h)    dimensional requirements of the pressed ferrule;

i)    marking limitations of the ferrule; and

j)    temperature limits of the ferrule secured system.

5.2 Ferrules

5.2.1    Material

The material selected by the ferrule manufacturer shall be non-alloy carbon steel or aluminium and shall conform to the same specification as that used by the ferrule-secured system designer when satisfying the type tests.

Non-alloy carbon steel shall be a fully-killed non-ageing normalized steel.

Aluminium shall be in condition F according to EN 515.

5.2.2    Dimensions

The dimensions of the ferrule shall be in accordance with those used by the ferrule-secured system designer when satisfying the type tests.

5.2.3    Manufacture and quality control of ferrule

The tube from which ferrules are made shall be free from any cracks, folds and surface defects.

With the exception of steel ferrules for Flemish eyes, ferrules shall be produced to provide a seam-free hollow product. Extrusion over mandrels with a bridge shall not be used. Electric resistance welding of steel tubes may only take place for flemish eyes and shall be carried out prior to the tube drawing and normalizing processes.

For each batch of steel ferrules produced from the same cast of steel and heat treatment a sample ferrule shall be selected and close flattened at ambient temperature, see figure 1. If the sample fails this test a further ten (10) or 3% of the batch of ferrules, whichever is the greater, shall be randomly selected, and all shall pass the flattening test otherwise the whole batch shall be rejected.

Figure 1 — Close-flattened ferrules

5.2.4    Certificate

The ferrule manufacturer shall supply a certificate stating that the whole batch of ferrules conforms to the ferrule secured system designer’s specification.

5.2.5    Marking

Each ferrule shall be marked with its size and the ferrule manufacturer’s name or mark except in the case of ferrules for use with ropes smaller than 8mm diameter where the marking can be on the package.

5.3 Ferrule-securing

5.3.1    General

The procedure adopted by the manufacturer of the ferrule-secured eye termination or endless loop shall be in accordance with 5.3.2 to 5.3.5 and the instructions provided by the ferrule-secured system designer.

Ferrule-securing shall be carried out by a competent person trained in ferrule-securing.

5.3.2    Matching of ferrule to wire rope

Determine the rope details from the documentation supplied with the rope, see EN 12385-1 and ensure that the rope is within the scope of the ferrule-secured system as detailed by the ferrule-secured system designer. In some cases it will also be necessary to determine the nominal metallic cross-sectional area factor of the rope, refer EN 12385 parts 4,5 & 10.

Follow the ferrule-secured system designer’s instructions to select the appropriate ferrule size, taking into account the nominal or measured diameter of the rope, whichever is applicable.

5.3.3    Forming the eye
5.3.3.1 Flemish eye

The outer strands of the rope shall be divided into two equal groups. The core shall be assigned to one of these groups. The length of rope divided shall depend on the size of eye to be formed. Both groups of strands shall then be re-laid together in opposing directions, see figure 2.

No individual strands shall protrude from the rope in the eye.

The positioning of the strand ends and the removal or retention and placing of the core shall be in accordance with the ferrule-secured system designer’s instructions (see 5.1.3).

When the ferrule is slid into position it shall not displace the strands. The strand ends shall be evenly distributed around the intact wire rope within the ferrule.

Positioning of the ferrule before pressing shall be such that the distance between the base of the thimble and the ferrule shall be “approximately” two times the nominal rope diameter after pressing. In the case of a thimble with a pointed end this distance shall be approximately 1,5 times the nominal rope diameter after pressing.

The peripheral length of a soft eye for a sling shall be at least four times the rope lay length.

СТБ EN 13411-3-2009

The peripheral length of a soft eye for a crane hoist rope shall be at least six times the rope lay length.

Figure 2 —Forming a Flemish eye

5.3.3.2 Turn-back eye

In the case of rope severed by a heat process the annealed length of rope shall not be greater than one rope diameter.

Rope secured by an oval ferrule with a tapered end shall not be severed by a heat process.

If a served rope end is to be pressed within the ferrule the serving shall consist only of a strand or wire. The serving material shall be of aluminium or annealed steel and shall have a tensile strength no greater than 400N/mrrT . The diameter of the serving shall be no greater than 5% of the nominal rope diameter. Any serving within the ferrule before pressing shall be no longer than one half the nominal rope diameter and the overall length of serving shall extend no further than one rope diameter from the rope end.

The eye shall be formed by passing the rope end through the ferrule to form the required eye size and then by passing the end of the rope back through the ferrule.

In the case of rope severed by a heat process the annealed portion of the rope shall not be positioned within the ferrule.
