ELEVATOR LOAD BEARING MEMBER HAVING A CONVERSION COATING ON A TENSION MEMBER

摘要

A load bearing member ( 22 ) useful in an elevator system ( 10 ) includes at least one elongated tension member ( 36 ), a conversion coating ( 46 ) on the elongated tension member ( 36 ), and a polymer jacket ( 34 ) at least partially surrounding the coated elongated tension member ( 36 ). In one example, the conversion coating ( 46 ) includes at least one of an oxide, a phosphate, or a chromate.
