  2. Wire rope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_rope

    Wire rope is composed of as few as two solid, metal wires twisted into a helix that forms a composite rope, in a pattern known as laid rope. Larger diameter wire rope consists of multiple strands of such laid rope in a pattern known as cable laid. Manufactured using an industrial machine known as a strander, the wires are fed through a series ...

  3. Bowden cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowden_cable

    A Bowden cable (/ ˈ b oʊ d ən / BOH-dən) [1] is a type of flexible cable used to transmit mechanical force or energy by the movement of an inner cable relative to a hollow outer cable housing. The housing is generally of composite construction, consisting of an inner lining, a longitudinally incompressible layer such as a helical winding or ...

  4. Litz wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litz_wire

    Litz wire consists of multiple strands insulated electrically from each other. Ordinarily the strands are twisted or woven, but no twisting is shown in this diagram. Litz wire is a particular type of multistrand wire or cable used in electronics to carry alternating current (AC) at radio frequencies. The wire is designed to reduce the skin ...

  5. Wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire

    A wire is a flexible, round, bar of metal. Wires are commonly formed by drawing the metal through a hole in a die or draw plate. Wire gauges come in various standard sizes, as expressed in terms of a gauge number or cross-sectional area. Wires are used to bear mechanical loads, often in the form of wire rope.

  6. Twisted pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisted_pair

    A solid-core cable uses one solid wire per conductor and in a four-pair cable, there would be a total of eight solid wires. [18] Stranded cable uses multiple wires wrapped around each other in each conductor and in a four-pair with seven strands per conductor cable, there would be a total of 56 wires (2 per pair × 4 pairs × 7 strands). [18 ...

  7. Suspension bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspension_bridge

    The wire used in suspension bridge construction is a galvanized steel wire that has been coated with corrosion inhibitors. At specific points along the main cable (each being the exact distance horizontally in relation to the next) devices called "cable bands" are installed to carry steel wire ropes called Suspender cables.

  8. Cable railing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_railing

    The most common cable construction is 1x19 type construction strand, which is 19 cables twisted in a single bundle, whereas for example, 7x7 would be 7 cable bundles of 7 cables twisted. This type of stainless strand is designed to have limited stretch, as compared to galvanized, [6] making it a good long term cable railing solution. It has ...

  9. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    American Wire Gauge (AWG) is a logarithmic stepped standardized wire gauge system used since 1857, predominantly in North America, for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire. Dimensions of the wires are given in ASTM standard B 258. [1] The cross-sectional area of each gauge is an important factor for ...
