Wire ropes are the power source for construction cranes as well as elevators. They also support bridges. These vital components are strong enough to stand up to the rigors of heavy loads and harsh environments. 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 has more than 40 years experience and knows the importance of wire ropes. The company designs, engineers and manufactures cutting-edge Wire Rope Lubrication Systems, Grease Systems, Cleaning Systems as well as Groove Cleaners to ensure ropes perform at their best for years to come.
The Two-Pronged Solution to Wire Rope Care
To prolong the life of wire ropes it is essential to adopt an approach that is both. The core wires inside need to be shielded from deterioration and corrosion, while the exterior wires should be protected from elements and extreme wear.
Interior Protection Corrosion is the unseen enemy of wire ropes. Contaminants, moisture and even sand can get into the outer strands of the rope, causing internal corrosion that weakens the core. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems deliver a precise quantity of lubricant directly into the core of the rope, creating a layer against corrosion while reducing internal friction.
External Defense: The exterior strands of a wire rope are exposed to a variety of threats, such as dirt, abrasion, and weather extremes. These elements, if neglected, can lead to wear, breakages, and rope breaking. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners remove dirt, debris and old grease, thus preparing the surface to ensure proper lubrication. This helps improve lubricant effectiveness, but also allows earlier detection of any potential problems such as broken strands or excessive wear.
