Wire ropes are the backbone of countless industries, silently operating elevators, cranes, construction, and bridges. These essential components are designed to withstand the rigors of heavy loads and harsh environments. Even the most durable wire ropes may wear out when they are not maintained properly. This causes costly downtime as well as safety hazards.
Corelube recognizes, with over more than 40 years in the business, how important wire ropes are. Corelube develops and designs state-of-the art Wire Rope Lubrication Systems and Grease Systems as well as Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners. It ensures that ropes work well over a long period of time.
The Two-Pronged Method of Wire Rope Care:
To extend the life of wire ropes, it is important to use an approach in two ways. The inner core wires must be protected from deterioration, corrosion and degrading. Likewise, the exterior wires must be shielded from elements and extreme wear.
Internal Protection: Corrosion is the silent adversary of wire cords. Moisture or contaminants can seep into the outer strands and trigger internal rust which can cause the rope’s core to weaken. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems deliver a precise amount of lubricant directly to the core, creating a barrier against corrosion and minimizing internal friction.
External Defense: The outside strands of a wire rope are exposed to a variety of challenges like dirt, abrasion, and extreme weather. If not taken care of, these elements can cause wear and tear that can lead to strand breakage and ultimately a rope breakage. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems, and Groove Cleaners, remove dirt, grease and debris to prepare the rope’s surface to ensure proper lubrication. This ensures not only optimal performance of the lubricant, but also early detection and prevention of problems such as worn strands and broken strands.
