We are thrilled to announce another successful Union Gladiator Synthetic Boom Pendants installation on a dragline, replacing traditional steel wire rope pendants! This powerful mining equipment efficiently handles overburden up to 120 feet thick and stacks it in piles as high as 140 feet. Our synthetic fiber main boom pendants represent a groundbreaking upgrade, expertly designed to minimize the transmission of destructive harmonic energy throughout the dragline. This innovative technology significantly extends the longevity of critical components compared to conventional steel wire rope pendants. With enhanced shock-absorbing properties, operators can achieve substantial savings on frame welding costs, reduce downtime, and lower electronic component replacement expenses. Plus, operators experience dramatically improved comfort, reducing vibratory fatigue during operation. Mines are among the harshest environments for ropes and pendants, where robust and dependable systems are crucial to harnessing raw power and moving substantial volumes. WireCo ropes have consistently delivered exceptional performance for mid-boom pendants, hoist ropes, towing lines, and haul truck safety tiebacks.
