EXPLANATORY

NOT~E

This standard was first issued in 1963. The experience gained in the implementation of this standard has necessitated the revision of the standard. While revising this standard, -6 x25 ( 22/12/A ) triangu~lar strand construction of wire rope has been deleted from the specification because of the limited use. Reference has been made to IS : 6594-1977, thereby deleting the requirements common Also the title of the standard has been slightly modified. to all types of wire ropes.
