Wire ropes are silently powered to construction cranes, bridges and elevators. They must withstand harsh conditions and bear heavy loads. However, without proper maintenance even the strongest wire rope is susceptible to wear and tear which can lead to expensive downtime and security hazards.

Corelube is a company with more than 40 years of experience, understands the important role wire ropes play. The company develops, engineers and produces state-of-the-art Wire Rope Lubrication Systems, Grease Systems, Cleaning Systems, and Groove Cleaners to ensure ropes operate at peak performance for the foreseeable future.

Two-pronged approach to maintenance of wire rope:

Extending wire rope life requires two steps: protecting the interior core wires from wear and corrosion, as well as shielding the exterior from elements in the environment and extreme wear conditions.

Interior Protection Corrosion is the unseen enemy of wire ropes. The influx of contaminants or moisture into the strands that surround it and trigger internal rust, which weakens the rope’s central. Corelube’s Wire Rope Lubrication Systems deliver a precise amount of lubricant directly into the core, creating a protective barrier against corrosion and minimizing internal friction.

External Defense: The outside wire rope’s strands are exposed to a range of challenges, including dirt, abrasions, and weather extremes. If they are not properly addressed, these issues can cause wear and tear, leading to breakage of the strands and eventually, rope failure. Corelube’s Wire Rope Cleaning Systems & Groove Cleaners clean dirt, debris, and old grease to prepare surfaces for proper lubrication. It does not only increase the lubricant’s effectiveness, but also facilitates early detection of issues such as broken strands and excessive wear.
