Wire ropes are the power source for construction cranes and elevators. They also serve as bridge support. These components must withstand extreme conditions and bear heavy loads. Even the most durable wire ropes may wear out when they are not maintained properly. This results in costly maintenance and security hazards.
Corelube has over 40 years expertise and recognizes the importance of wire ropes. 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 operate at peak performance for the foreseeable future.
The Two-Pronged Method of Wire Rope Care:
To extend the life of wire ropes, it is essential to adopt an approach that is both. The inner core wires must be protected from deterioration and corrosion. On the other hand, the wires that are outside need to be protected from elements and wear.
Internal Protection: Corrosion is the silent enemy of wire cords. Water and contaminants can get through the outer strands, creating internal rust which weakens the core which is the rope’s lifeline. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems are created to supply the exact amount of lubricant you require directly into the core. This creates a barrier from corrosion and minimizes internal friction.
Exterior Defense: The outer wire rope strands of the rope are subject to numerous challenges like dirt, abrasions, and extreme weather conditions. If not taken care of, the above factors can cause wear and tear that can lead to rope failure. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems, and Groove Cleaners, remove dirt and grease to clean the rope’s surface to ensure proper lubrication. This allows for an optimal lubricant performance but also for early detection and prevention of issues such as worn strands and broken strands.
