Description

Bridon Tiger® Superflex is engineered for high flexibility, making it easier to handle and install on mining winding and hoisting systems where rope stiffness would otherwise complicate installation, splicing, or handling on site.

Construction context: Wire rope flexibility is largely a function of construction — the number and size of individual wires, lay type, and core construction all affect how easily a rope bends and handles. A more flexible rope is generally easier to reel, splice, and manoeuvre during installation, which can meaningfully reduce installation time and handling difficulty on larger mining hoisting systems.

Typical applications: Underground mining hoisting systems where ease of handling and installation is a priority, alongside the fatigue and wear performance expected of any mining-duty rope.

Why flexibility matters on site: Mining hoist ropes are often large-diameter and installed in challenging underground or shaft environments. A more flexible rope construction reduces the physical effort and time required during installation and re-reeving, without compromising the strength and duty performance required for hoisting service.

Manufacturing and quality: Manufactured by Bridon-Bekaert with full mill certification and test documentation supplied with every reel.
