Introduction This Part of this European Standard has been prepared to be a harmonized standard to provide one means of complying with the essential safety requirements of the Machinery Directive. This Part of this European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN 292. For the purposes of the Certificate referred to in clause 7, this Part assumes a working load limit based on a safety factor of 5. The safety factor and the required minimum breaking force of the rope for a given application is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the machine of which the rope forms a part. During the preparation of this standard, it was assumed that a negotiation would take place between the purchaser and the manufacturer concerning the intended purpose of the rope. Although tables of breaking forces and masses are provided for a number of the more common classes, diameters and rope grades, this Part of this standard is not limited to those given, providing all of the other requirements are met. Specifiers, purchasers and users should recognise that some ropes are specially designed by the manufacturer to meet particular lifting machinery requirements.
1 Scope This Part of this European Standard specifies the particular materials, manufacturing and testing requirements for ropes for general lifting applications. The particular hazards covered by this Part are identified in Clause 4.
This Part of this European Standard does not establish requirements for information for use other than those given in clause 7 of Part 1. Neither does it cover the requirements for ropes fitted with terminations. Minimum breaking force values for the more common classes, sizes and grades of rope are provided in tables 5 to 17. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments).

NOTE For the purposes of this Part of EN 12385, insufficient strength of parts means failure to achieve the minimum breaking force of the rope. 5 Safety requirements and/or measures 5.1 General In addition to the requirements given 5.2 to 5.5, the requirements shall also conform to those given in EN 12385-1.
5.2 Materials 5.2.1 Wire Wires, before ropemaking, shall conform to EN 10264-2.
For those ropes where a rope grade is applicable, e.g. Tables 5 to 16, the tensile strength grades of the wires shall be subject to the limits given in Table 2.
For those ropes where a rope grade is not applicable, e.g. large diameter ropes, the tensile strength grades of the wires shall be one or a combination of those given in EN 10264-2.
