An anti-twisting braided steel wire rope is a specialized, non-rotating rope that is essential for overhead power line projects. Its unique construction consists of an equal number of right-hand lay and left-hand lay strands braided together. This design ensures that when the rope is under tension, the rotational forces of the individual strands counteract each other, resulting in a net zero-torque output. This non-rotating property is critical because it prevents the conductor from twisting as it is pulled. Conductor twisting can cause severe damage to the conductor strands, lead to kinking, and cause dangerous issues with the stringing equipment.
