The invention relates to the related technical field of elevator steel wire ropes, and discloses a reinforced elevator steel wire rope. The reinforced elevator steel wire rope comprises a shell, a tantalum hafnium carbide layer, a first protective sleeve, polyvinyl chloride, a cleaning brush and a hoop, a clamping block is arranged at one end of the shell, a clamping groove is formed in the otherend of the shell, the tantalum hafnium carbide layer is arranged on one side of the shell, a first hook-and-loop fastener is arranged on one side of the hafnium tantalum carbide layer, the first protective sleeve is arranged on the outer side of the shell, a second protective sleeve is arranged on one side of the first protective sleeve, meanwhile, a first fixing bolt is arranged on one side of the second protective sleeve, and the polyvinyl chloride is arranged on the surface of the shell. According to the reinforced elevator steel wire rope, the the arrangement the tantalum hafnium carbide layer and the first hook-and-loop fastener, the high-temperature-resistant effect can be achieved on the steel wire rope, work can be carried out in a high-temperature environment, damage, caused by the high temperature, to the steel wire rope is avoided, and the heat resistance of the steel wire rope is improved through the tantalum hafnium carbide layer.
