Wire ropes provide silent power to construction cranes, bridges and elevators. These vital components bear tremendous weight and withstand harsh conditions. But, if they are not properly maintained even the strongest wire rope could succumb to wear and tear resulting in dangerous safety risks and costly downtime.
Corelube is aware, even after more than 40 years in the business how vital wire ropes are. The company designs, engineers and manufactures cutting-edge Wire Rope Lubrication Systems.
The two-pronged approach for maintenance of wire rope:
In order to extend the life of wire ropes, you need a two-pronged approach: protecting the inner core wires from corrosion and wear, and safeguarding the exterior from elements in the environment and extreme wear conditions.
Interior Protection Corrosion is an invisible enemy of wire ropes. The influx of contaminants or moisture into the outer strands and trigger internal rust, which can weaken the rope’s core. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems deliver a precise amount of lubricant directly into the core, creating a barrier against corrosion as well as reducing internal friction.
Exterior Defense: A wire rope’s outer layers are exposed to a variety of challenges, like dirt, abrasion or even extreme weather. When neglected, can lead to damage, strand breaks and rope breaking. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems, along with Groove Cleaners, remove dirt, grease and debris to clean the rope’s surface for proper lubrication. This ensures not only best performance from the lubricant but also early detection and prevention of issues like worn strands, or broken strands.
