Izintambo ze-Fecral alloy zezintambo zocingo ngokuvamile zenziwe nge-non-alloy carbon steel enokuqukethwe kwekhabhoni engu-0.4 kuya ku-0.95%. Amandla aphakeme kakhulu ezintambo zezintambo enza izintambo zikwazi ukusekela amandla amakhulu futhi zigijime phezu kwezithungu ezinobubanzi obuncane.

Kulokho okubizwa ngokuthi i-cross lay strands, izintambo zezingqimba ezihlukene ziwelana. Emicu yokulala esetshenziswa kakhulu ehambisanayo, ubude bazo zonke izendlalelo zocingo buyalingana futhi izintambo zanoma yiziphi izendlalelo ezimbili ezibekwe phezulu ziyahambisana, okuholela ekuthintaneni komugqa. Ucingo lwesendlalelo sangaphandle lusekelwa izintambo ezimbili zesendlalelo sangaphakathi. Lezi zintambo zingomakhelwane kubo bonke ubude bomucu. Izintambo ezihambisanayo zenziwa ekusebenzeni okukodwa. Ukukhuthazela kwezintambo zocingo ngalolu hlobo lwentambo kuhlala kukhulu kakhulu kunalezo (ezingavamile ukusetshenziswa) ezinezintambo eziphambanayo. Izintambo zokulala ezihambisanayo ezinezingqimba ezimbili zocingo zine-Filler yokwakha, i-Seale noma i-Warrington.

Empeleni, izintambo ezithandelayo ziyizintambo eziyindilinga njengoba zineqoqo lezingqimba zezintambo ezibekwe phezu kwesikhungo okungenani ungqimba olulodwa lwezintambo olubekwe ngokuphambene nolwelwesi olungaphandle. Izintambo ezivunguzayo zingalinganiswa ngendlela yokuthi azijikelezi okusho ukuthi ngaphansi kokushuba itorque yezintambo icishe ibe nguziro. Intambo evunguzayo evulekile iqukethe izintambo eziyindilinga kuphela. Intambo yekhoyili ekhiywe uhhafu kanye nentambo yekhoyili ekhiywe ngokugcwele zihlala zinesikhungo esenziwe ngezintambo eziyindilinga. Izintambo zekhoyili ezikhiyiwe zinesendlalelo esingaphandle esisodwa noma ngaphezulu sezintambo zephrofayili. Banenzuzo yokuthi ukwakhiwa kwabo kuvimbela ukungena kokungcola namanzi ngezinga elikhulu futhi kubavikela ekulahlekelweni kwe-lubricant. Ngaphezu kwalokho, banenzuzo eyodwa futhi ebaluleke kakhulu njengoba iziphetho zocingo lwangaphandle oluphukile lungakwazi ukushiya intambo uma inezilinganiso ezifanele.
Intambo eboshiwe yakhiwe inombolo yezintambo ezincane ezihlanganiswe noma ezisongwe ndawonye ukuze zenze ikhondukta enkulu. Intambo ene-stranded ivumelana nezimo kunocingo oluqinile lwengqikithi yendawo ephambanayo. Intambo eboshiwe isetshenziswa lapho ukumelana okuphezulu nokukhathala kwensimbi kuyadingeka. Izimo ezinjalo zihlanganisa ukuxhumana phakathi kwamabhodi wesifunda kumadivayisi webhodi le-multi-printed-circuit-board, lapho ukuqina kocingo oluqinile kuzoveza ukucindezeleka okukhulu ngenxa yokunyakaza ngesikhathi sokuhlangana noma ukusevisa; Izintambo ze-AC zemishini; insimbi yomculoikhebulas; izintambo zegundane lekhompyutha; izintambo ze-electrode zokushisela; izintambo zokulawula ezixhuma izingxenye zomshini ezihambayo; izintambo zomshini wokumba; izintambo zomshini wokulandela umkhondo; nabanye abaningi.
