Wire ropes are the workhorses of a variety of industries, quietly powering construction cranes, elevators, and bridges. These components must withstand extreme circumstances and carry massive weights. However, without proper maintenance even the most durable wire rope is susceptible to wear and tear, which can lead to expensive downtime and security hazards.
Corelube recognizes, with over forty years of service in the field how vital wire ropes are. Corelube develops, engineers and manufactures cutting-edge Wire Rope Lubrication Systems.
The Two-Pronged Approach to Wire Rope Care
Wire ropes can be extended by two-pronged strategies: protect the wires’ core from wear and corrosion as well as protect the outer surface from extreme environmental elements and conditions.
Interior Protection Corrosion is a silent enemy of wire ropes. Water, dirt and other contaminants can penetrate the outer rope’s strands leading to internal corrosion that weakens its core. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems are made to deliver precisely the amount of lubricant you require directly into core. This provides a shield from corrosion and decreases friction within the rope.
Exterior Defense: A wire rope’s outer layers are exposed to various dangers such as abrasion, dirt or even extreme weather. When ignored, could lead to wear, breakages, and even rope failure. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems & Groove Cleaners clean dirt, debris and old grease to prepare the surfaces for proper lubrication. This ensures optimal performance of the lubricant, but also the detection and prevention of problems like worn strands or broken strands.
