Market Share by Type of Lay

In regular lay, the strands of the cable flow in the opposite direction making it prone to distortion due to which regular lay steel wire ropes are useful in situations where bending is required. Lang lay steel wire ropes have strands flowing in the same direction which allows easy lifting, hoisting, pulling, or pushing of materials. 

Alternate lay is a mixture of regular lay and lang lay as it consists of three strands of ordinary and three strands of lang lay. It offers properties of both lang lay and regular lay making it more versatile for a wider range of applications, due to which the alternate lay segment is expected to witness growth in the Sub Saharan Africa steel wire rope market.

Market Share by Coating Type

Different coating materials are used for the steel wire rope depending on its application. Nylon is used as a coating to prevent corrosion and wear and tear. PVC and Vinyl both can be used to coat stainless steel and galvanized steel wire rope. PVC is used for flexibility and resistance from water and because it is cost-effective. 

Meanwhile, Nickel is used as a coating when there is a requirement is for hardness, brightness, and improved appearance. Nylon is tougher than any other material and is used for various load running applications. The wide variety of coatings available for steel wire ropes and the added benefits they offer are boosting the Sub Saharan Africa steel wire rope market.
