The global bridge cable sockets market size is expected to reach USD 116.23 million by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris market research. The report "Bridge Cable Sockets Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Type (Open Standard Sockets, Closed Standard Sockets, Open Wire Rope Shelter Sockets, Closed Wire Rope Shelter Sockets, Closed Bridge Sockets, Open Bridge Sockets, Anchor Sockets, Bridge Champs, and Prolite Sockets); By Material; By Application; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2023 - 2032" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The drastic increase in the number of infrastructure projects and construction volumes across the globe, rising penetration for bridge rehabilitation and maintenance, and surging focus on environmental sustainability that fuels the need for energy-efficient and eco-friendly infrastructure solutions, are leading factors expected to drive the market growth. Additionally, manufacturers are focusing on the development of sockets with enhanced corrosion resistance, improved fatigue performance, and easy maintenance features, which helps to reduce the long-term maintenance costs and ensures the longevity of bridge structure, while creating lucrative market growth opportunities. For instance, in September 2021, Arcus Wire Group, share the stunning pictures of their latest Radaeli steel rope products, employed in suspension bridge under construction in the Victoria.
Moreover, the FRP sockets have gained immerse popularity and traction as an effective alternative to traditional cable sockets, as FRP materials offer excellent corrosion resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and increased durability and can enhance the lifespan and structural integrity of bridge cables. Additive manufacturing techniques like 3D printing, have been explored in the recent years for the production of bridge cable sockets, as this technology allows for complex geometries, customization, and rapid prototyping and has the potential to optimize the design and manufacturing process of sockets, resulting in improved performance and reduced material waste, have also been influencing the market growth at significant pace.
