Nominal Diameter – The Nominal Diameter is the diameter by which the rope is designated in a catalogue or on the Declaration of Conformity.
\n\n
Reference Diameter – The Reference Diameter is the measured diameter of a section of rope that is not subject to bending, taken directly after running in the new rope. More simply this is the diameter of the rope when new and should be used as the baseline for uniform change in diameter.
\n\n
Measured Diameter – The Measured Diameter is the diameter that you measure as part of your examination and should be assessed by taking the average of two measurements, taken at right angles to one another.
\n\n
\n\n
POSITION OF CALIPER
\n\n
The Severity Rating represents the amount of deterioration expressed as a percentage towards discard . This rating may relate to either an individual mode of deterioration like decrease in diameter or the cumulative effect of more than one type of deterioration which might include visible broken wires.
\n\n
\nWhat is Wire Rope Diametric Reduction?
\n\n
Over time, wire rope diameters decrease due to wear and tear. This reduction impacts the rope's strength and increases the risk of failure. The ISO 4309 standard establishes guidelines for measuring and assessing this diametric reduction to ensure safe operation.
\n\n
\n\n
How Does Our Calculator Help?
\n\n
Our calculator simplifies the process of using the ISO 4309 standard. Simply enter the following:
\n\n
\n\t
Reference Diameter: The original diameter of your new wire rope.
\n\t
Measured Diameter: The current diameter of your wire rope, measured at two perpendicular points.
\n
\n\n
The calculator will then calculate the percentage of diametric reduction and provide guidance on the remaining safe working life of your wire rope based on ISO 4309 benchmarks.
\n\n
\n\n
Benefits of Using Our Calculator:
\n\n
\n\t
Improved Safety: Make informed decisions about wire rope replacement, preventing accidents and equipment damage.
\n\t
Enhanced Efficiency: Reduce downtime and maintenance costs by proactively managing your wire rope's lifespan.
\n\t
Compliance with ISO 4309: Ensure adherence to industry standards for safe lifting operations.
\n
\n\n
Combined with Carl Stahl Evita's expertise in wire rope and lifting equipment, this calculator empowers you to confidently maintain the safety and performance of your lifting systems.

Streamline your stock management with Inventory by Carl Stahl
\n
\n\n
\n\n
\n
The goal of an inventory is to maintain an accurate record of a business' stock-level, location and age.
\n\n
Stock-taking can be a laborious and often complex task, especially in fast-moving warehouses.
\n\n
Manual inventories usually involve a stack of paperwork or time-consuming data entry to track stock-levels and location.
\n\n
While manual inventories might seem like a more cost-effective solution in the first instance, they are time-consuming, arduous and prone to human error.
\n\n
Electronic alternatives involving barcode scanners or RFID readers can provide a convenient solution, however the hardware can be prone to technical issues and can become out-dated, unsupported or even obsolete over time.
\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
Enter the Inventory app from Carl Stahl. Linked conveniently to data in the Carl Stahl Equipment Portal, the Inventory app removes all the fuss, complication and innacuracies faced by a manual inventory process.
\n\n
The Inventory app, available from both Play Store (Android) and Apple Store (iPhone) is compatible with Android and Apple devices*.
\n\n
Developed by a team of innovative, expert developers at our German HQ, Inventory app has been designed with simplicity and effiency in mind.
\n\n
Simply open the app, identify the item with the app's QR code/barcode scanner and the required information is recorded instantly and securely within the Equipment Portal.
Convenient - Inventory is compatible with Android or Apple mobile devices
\n\t
Simple - one click operation
\n\t
Integrated - instant syncronisation with the Equipment Portal
\n\t

\n\n
\n\n
\n\n
\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n
A collaborative approach
\n
\n\n
\n\n
\n
Managers can assign authorisation to Inventory by Carl Stahl app to several users simultaneously within the Equipment Portal. Users access the app with their email and password.
\n\n
This allows several users to work on an inventory at the same time, while managers can access global inventory data and run reports from the Equipment Portal.
\n\n
This collaborative approach in known to boost team morale and improve accountability within the team, as each user's activity is accurately recorded within the Equipment Portal's inventory report.
\n\n
The Inventory app is designed with simplicity at its core, so users from any level of technical ability or with very basic smartphone experience can sign in and track stock with zero training.
\n\n
\n\n
\n\n
Clear, accessible inventory reports
\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
Inventory app is linked to the Equipment Portal.
\n\n
Within the Equipment Portal, authorised users can view, sort and export inventory information at the tap of a button. Exported .XLS reports can be viewed within most industry-standard spreadsheet applications, including MS Excel, Google Sheets, Zoho Sheet and LibreOffice Calc.
\n\n
Equipment Portal is accessible via any compatible, internet-connected device.
\n\n

\n\t
Outstanding wear resistance through RUD’s precision heat-treatment process
\n
\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
ICE – Grade 12: maximum performance at minimal weight
\n\n
\n\t
Up to 60% higher breaking force than Grade 8 — ideal for heavy loads
\n\t
Roughly 30% lighter, providing ergonomic handling and improved safety
\n\t
Temperature-resistant from –60 °C to +300 °C for extreme operating environments
\n\t
High surface hardness and wear resistance through special ICE hardening
\n\t
Suitable for extreme conditions: cold, heat, sharp-edged loads
\n\t
Resource-efficient and sustainable thanks to optimised alloy and energy use
\n
\n\n
\n
\n
\n\n
\n
Conclusion:
\n\n
VIP is the proven choice for versatile applications with dynamic loads. ICE is ideal when you work in particularly harsh or extreme conditions — and value low weight with maximum breaking strength.

Configurator highlights at a glance: what to keep in mind
\n\n
The configurator guides you step by step to a safe selection. For planning, operation, and inspections, please note:
\n\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
1. Load weight
\n\n
The weight to be lifted is the basis of any design. Only an accurate weight (including attachments) allows you to determine the safe WLL.
\n
\n
\n\n
\n\n\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
2. Number of legs & symmetry
\n\n
Up to four legs are possible. The number depends on attachment points, symmetry, centre of gravity, and load geometry. For unsymmetrical loading, the WLL of a single leg applies (DGUV 100-500).
\n
\n
\n\n
\n\n\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
3. Effective length & sling angle
\n\n
Effective length determines the sling angle (permitted 0°–60°). A larger distance between attachment points requires longer legs. The configurator checks angles and shows WLL depending on angle.
\n
\n
\n\n
\n\n\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
4. Centre of gravity & geometry
\n\n
For asymmetrical or elongated loads, different leg lengths or additional components (e.g. wreath/auxiliary chain) may be required. Observe any WLL reductions.
\n
\n
\n\n
\n\n\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
5. Operating environment
\n\n
Temperature, cold, moisture, or edges influence the choice of grade. ICE components are suitable, for example, from –60 °C to +300 °C; sharp-edged loads require suitable edge protection.
\n
\n
\n\n
\n\n\n
\n\n\n
\n
\n\n
\n
6. Safety, combinations & prohibitions
\n\n
Only combine components of the same grade/nominal diameter. Knots, twists and choking with hoist chains are not permitted. The configurator flags incompatibilities and guides you to a safe selection.
Many applications are covered by our stocked standard lengths. Discover selected sets in the webshop — fast delivery, RUD quality, including certification.
