This picture below shows the plaited construction of Superflex Cable. The blue lines represent the “Z” lay sets of cords, and yellow lines represent the “S” laysets. The helix angle in both lays is 10 degrees in each direction. The white lines indicate the node points on Superflex where the sets crossover. The distance between the white lines is the cable pitch, usually expressed as a ratio of the cable nominal diameter. At bottom is ordinary wire rope of 6 x 24 construction. The red lines represents the helix angle that the strands follow in the wire rope, in this case approximately 20 degrees. The light blue lines represent the helical pitch of this wire rope. As you will see, the helical pitch of Superflex is twice that of ordinary wire rope. This is one of the main reasons that Superflex demonstrates a high UTS, considering its low mass compared to wire rope.
