Wire ropes provide silent power for bridges, construction cranes, and elevators. They are incredibly strong and can withstand a lot of weight and endure harsh environments. If they are not maintained properly even wire ropes of the best quality could become worn out, resulting in a costly breakdown and security hazards.
Corelube understands, after more than 40 years in the business, how important wire ropes are. The company develops, engineers and manufactures cutting-edge Wire Rope Lubrication Systems.
The two-pronged method of wire rope care:
The process of extending the life of wire ropes requires a two-pronged approach: protecting the interior core wires from corrosion and wear, as well as shielding the exterior from elements in the environment and extreme wear conditions.
Interior Protection: Corrosion is the silent adversary of wire ropes. Water, dirt and other contaminants can get into the outer rope’s strands which causes internal corrosion, which weakens the core. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems inject an exact amount of lubricant in the core to create a barrier against corrosion that reduces internal friction, creating a protective layer.
Exterior Protection: The wire rope’s outer strands may be exposed to various dangers like dirt, abrasion or extreme weather. If left unchecked, the elements mentioned above can result in wear and tear that can lead to rope failure. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners remove dirt, debris, and old grease, while preparing the surface for proper lubrication. This does not just improve the efficiency of the lubricant but also facilitates earlier detection of issues such as broken strands and excessive wear.
