Wire ropes are the power source for construction cranes as well as elevators. They also serve as bridge support. These components must withstand extreme conditions and must support heavy weights. But, if they are not properly maintained even the strongest wire rope can succumb to wear and tear resulting in expensive downtime and security hazards.
Corelube has more than 40 years of expertise, has a deep understanding of the important role wire ropes play in the lives of people. The company designs, engineers and manufactures the most advanced Wire Rope Lubrication Systems, Grease Systems, Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners to ensure ropes are at their peak for a long time to come.
The Two-Pronged Solution for Wire Rope Care
Wire ropes are able to be extended with two-pronged strategies: protect the wires’ core from wear and corrosion as well as protect the exterior from harsh environmental elements and conditions.
Interior Protection Corrosion is an invisible adversary of wire ropes. Water, dirt and other contaminants can get into the outer rope’s strands creating internal corrosion that weakens the core. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems are created to supply the exact amount of lubricant needed directly into the core. This creates a protective shield against corrosion and reduces internal friction.
Exterior defense: A wire rope’s outer strands can be exposed to various dangers like dirt, abrasion or extreme weather. If they are not properly addressed, these issues can result in wear and tear, which can lead to breakage of the strands and eventually the rope breaking. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners remove dirt, debris, and old grease, preparing the surface for proper lubrication. This not only optimizes lubricant effectiveness but also allows early detection of potential issues such as broken strands or excessive wear.
