Magnetic nondestructive techniques are being used nowadays to evaluate the conditions of track ropes. Locked coil construction is used in track ropes. In this paper an attempt has been made to highlight the comparison of the condition of two track ropes throughout their lives in the aerial ropeway. A complete documentation of gradual rope deterioration throughout the rope's entire service life by periodic inspection since the rope's Installation would enable the operator to arrive at a decision for preventing premature rope's failure under adverse conditions or extensions of rope life in deserving cases.
