Wire ropes are the mainstays of numerous industries, quietly operating elevators, cranes, construction, and bridges. These components have to withstand severe conditions and bear heavy loads. But, if they are not properly maintained even the most durable wire rope can succumb to wear and tear resulting in dangerous safety risks and costly downtime.
Corelube is a company with more than 40 years experience and understands the importance of wire ropes. Corelube designs, engineers and manufactures cutting-edge Wire Rope Lubrication Systems.
The Two-Pronged Approach to Wire Rope Care:
In order to extend the life of wire ropes, you need the use of two different strategies: protecting the core wires inside from corrosion and wear, and securing the exterior wires from environmental elements and severe wear conditions.
Interior Protection Corrosion is an invisible adversary of wire ropes. Moisture and contaminants can penetrate into the outer strands and trigger internal rust which weakens the rope’s central. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems deliver the precise amount of lubricant directly into the core, creating a barrier against corrosion as well as reducing internal friction.
Exterior Defense: The outer wire rope’s strands are exposed to a range of challenges, including dirt, abrasion and extreme weather. If not taken care of, these elements can lead to wear and tear, leading to breakage of strands, and eventually a rope failure. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems and Groove Cleaners remove dirt, debris, and old grease, thus preparing the surface to ensure proper lubrication. This allows for best performance from the lubricant but also early detection and prevention of problems like worn strands, or broken strands.
Corelube is a One-Stop Shop for Wire Rope Maintenance Solutions
Corelube is a firm believer in a holistic strategy for maintaining wire rope. The systems they offer are developed to integrate to provide a complete service.
Wire Rope Lubrication Systems: Corelube offers a range of lubrication equipment, ranging starting with automatic dispensers that offer continuous protection, to manual applicators that are specifically designed to lubricate.
