STRETCH IN WIRE
Stretch is a characteristic of all wire, initially as
permanent stretch when the load is first applied and
the individual wires bed down, and then as conventional
elastic stretch within the wires as load increases. Where
stretch is critical to the application, initial stretch can
be accounted for with cables stretched (pre-stressed)
during swaging and cable manufacturing. Elastic stretch
can be estimated by the following formula:
Elastic stretch (mm) =
WxL
ExA
Typical values for E are:
where:
W = Applied load (kN)
L = Cable length (mm)

E = Strand modulus (kN/mm )
A = Metallic Cross Sectional Area (mm2) as
