Wire ropes are the mainstays of many industries, quietly operating elevators, cranes, construction and bridges. They’re strong enough to stand up to heavy loads and harsh environments. However, without proper maintenance even the most durable wire rope may succumb to wear and tear resulting in expensive downtime and security hazards.
Corelube understands, after forty years of service in the field, how important wire ropes are. Corelube develops and designs cutting-edge Wire Rope Lubrication Systems and Grease Systems as well as Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners. It ensures that ropes work in peak condition for many years.
The two-pronged method of wire rope care:
Wire ropes can be extended using two-pronged methods: protect the core wires against wear and corrosion, as well as shield the outer layer from extreme conditions and environmental elements.
Interior Protection: Corrosion, the silent enemy of wire cords. Water or other contaminants can get into the strands that surround it and trigger internal rust, which can weaken the rope’s core. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems are created to supply the exact amount of lubricant required directly into the core. This creates a protective barrier from corrosion and minimizes friction within the rope.
Exterior Protection: The wire rope’s outer strands may be exposed to various dangers like dirt, abrasion or even extreme weather. If these conditions are not addressed, they can lead to wear and tear that can lead to breakage of strands, and eventually a rope breakage. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners remove dirt, debris, and old grease, preparing the surface for proper lubrication. This allows for optimum lubricant performance, but also for early detection and prevention of problems like worn strands, or broken strands.
