Abstract The article provides the results of fatigue life testing of steel ropes responsible for carrying longitudinal and transverse loads, used in construction machine tyres. The fatigue life of such a steel rope depends on factors associated with its construction, execution quality, as well as on wire patenting conditions. The fatigue strength of steel ropes under bidirectional bending conditions was compared for different cord constructions and for cords made of different steel grades on a specially designed, innovative testing machine for steel ropes. Moreover, the effect of heat treatment on a patenting line on the properties of cord wires was determined.
