Wire ropes are among the most important components of countless industries, silently powering construction cranes, elevators and bridges. They are the most essential component that is capable of enduring heavy loads and harsh environments. In the absence of proper maintenance even wire ropes that are of the best quality could get worn out, which can result in costly downtimes and health risks.
Corelube understands, after 40 years in the industry that wire ropes are as important as they are. The company designs, develops and manufactures the most advanced Wire Rope Lubrication Systems, Grease Systems, Cleaning Systems, as well as Groove Cleaners to ensure ropes are at their peak for years to come.
The two-pronged method of the care of wire ropes:
Wire ropes can be extended by a two-pronged strategy: protect the wires’ core from wear and corrosion, and also shield the outer surface from extreme environmental elements and conditions.
Interior Protection Corrosion is the unseen adversary of wire ropes. Moisture and contaminants can seep through the outer strands, leading to internal rust that weakens the core – the rope’s lifeline. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems are specifically designed to provide the precise amount of lubricant that is required directly into the core. This provides a shield from corrosion and decreases internal friction.
Exterior Protection: Wire rope’s outer layers are exposed to various dangers such as abrasion, dirt or extreme weather. Left unchecked, these factors can result in wear and tear leading to breakage of the strands and eventually a rope breakage. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems, and Groove Cleaners, remove dirt, grease and debris to make the rope’s surface to ensure proper lubrication. This not only optimizes lubricant effectiveness, but also allows an early detection of any issues such as broken strands or excessive wear.
