Wire ropes are the backbone of numerous industries, quietly providing power to elevators, cranes for construction and bridges. They must withstand harsh circumstances and carry massive weights. If they are not maintained properly even wire ropes of the finest quality could be worn out, resulting in costly downtimes and health risks.
Corelube understands, after 40 years in the industry how vital wire ropes are. The company designs, develops, and manufactures state-of-the-art Wire Rope Lubrication Systems, Grease Systems, Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners to ensure ropes operate at peak performance for years to come.
Two-pronged approach to wire rope care:
Wire ropes can be extended by two-pronged methods: protect the wires’ core from wear and corrosion, as well as shield the outer layer from extreme conditions and environmental elements.
Interior Protection: The silent enemy is corrosion. Moisture and contaminants can seep into the outer strands leading to internal rust that weakens the core – the rope’s lifeline. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems inject the right amount of lubricant into the core, creating an anti-corrosion barrier that reduces internal friction, creating a protective layer.
Exterior Protection: The exterior wire rope strands are subject to a variety of challenges, including dirt, abrasions as well as extreme weather conditions. Left unchecked, these factors can result in wear and tear, leading to breakage of the strands and eventually a rope failure. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems, along with Groove Cleaners, remove dirt and grease to clean the rope’s surface for proper lubrication. This not only optimizes lubricant effectiveness but also allows for early detection of potential issues such as broken strands or excessive wear.
