� It does not necessarily mean that if your cable does not have any signs of wear and
tear, you can still use it. The cable should be changed every 5 years, regardless of
condition. If there is any doubt during inspection of the condition of the cable, replace it
with a new one. If in the unlikely event, a chain break occurs, a new cable must be used
as well as a new chain.
Internal Wear:
Internal wear can be detected by the tell tale signs of a loosening of
strands and the presence of powdered fiber. It is most often caused when grit becomes
trapped in a cable which is repeatedly flexed in wet conditions. If signs of this are
detected, replace cable.
Attack by heat:
This may be revealed by glazing of the cable surface. In extreme cases
local fused sections indicate heat through friction and a considerable loss of strength can
be expected. If, after careful visual examination, doubts still exist, discard the cable or
consult the cable manufacturer.
Maintenance after Inspection:
Any cable which has broken through any of above
criteria should be discarded and replaced.
