Wire ropes are the power source for construction cranes and elevators. They also help support bridges. These components have to withstand severe circumstances and carry massive weights. However, without proper maintenance even the strongest wire rope may succumb to wear and tear, resulting in dangerous safety risks and costly downtime.
Corelube understands, after forty years of service in the field the importance of wire ropes are. The company designs, develops and manufactures cutting-edge Wire Rope Lubrication Systems, Grease Systems, Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners to ensure ropes function at their highest performance for the foreseeable future.
The two-pronged approach to cleaning wire rope:
Wire ropes can be extended using two-pronged methods: protect the wires’ core from wear and corrosion, as well as shield the outside surface from extreme conditions and environmental elements.
Interior Protection Corrosion is an invisible adversary of wire ropes. Moisture and contaminants can seep into the outer strands creating internal rust which weakens the core – the rope’s lifeline. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems deliver the exact quantity of lubricant directly into the core, creating a protective barrier against corrosion and minimizing internal friction.
Exterior defense: A wire rope’s outer strands can be exposed to a variety of challenges, like dirt, abrasion or extreme weather. If these conditions are not addressed, they can cause wear and tear, which can lead to breakage of strands, and eventually, rope failure. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems & Groove Cleaners clean dirt, debris and old grease to prepare the surfaces for proper lubrication. This improves the lubricant’s effectiveness but also allows for early detection of potential issues such as broken strands and excessive wear.
