Fatigue on component wire in steel wire ropes under tension and superposing alternating bending has been studied.This paper describes the result of the fatigue test of a steel wirewhich bears a natural curl, and discusses the stress on component wire considering the curvature. Result of observation of the fracture surface on specimen is also discussed. The similarity between the bending of single wire and the equivalent bending of a particular component wire in a 7×7 wire rope is investigated.
