Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 105, Steel wire ropes.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 2232:1990), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
2 2
— addition of tensile grades 2 260 N/mm and 2 360 N/mm ;
— inclusion of wire for mine hoisting ropes previously covered by ISO 6984.

Introduction
This document was developed in response to a worldwide demand for a specification giving minimum
requirements for round non-alloy steel wires for general purpose, large diameter and mine hoisting
wire ropes.
As in previous editions, this edition of ISO 2232 specifies metric sizes and grades of wire for the more
common diameter and grades of wire.

4.4 Type
This specification provides details on two types of wire:
— standard duty - wire is specified for general purpose and large diameter ropes;
— high duty- wire is specified for demanding applications such as mine hoisting ropes.
5 Tensile grades
5.1 General
— 1 570 MPa for wires of all classes, quality A and B
— 1 770 MPa for wires of all classes, quality A and B
— 1 960 MPa for wires of all classes, quality A and B
— 2 160 MPa for bright wires and zinc or Zn/Al alloy coated wires, quality B

— 2 360 MPa for bright wires and zinc or Zn/Al alloy coated wires, quality B
These nominal values are the lower limits of strength. The upper limits are equal to the lower limits
plus the tolerances specified in Table 2.
