wire rope dressing for sale

A tenacious, semi-fluid, non-melting grease designed for complete lubrication and corrosion protection on most types of wire ropes, particularly in hostile conditions.

High performance semi-fluid wire rope dressing grease providing excellent corrosion protection in multiple environments including saltwater and under water.

A tenacious, semi-fluid, non-melting grease designed for complete lubrication and corrosion protection on most types of wire ropes, particularly in hostile conditions.

WRN-EP is recommended for the general maintenance of wire rope. It provides corrosion protection and lubrication for standing and running rigging, drag lines and bridge cable. WRN-EP provides higher resistance to water abrasion and washout when used in tidal areas. Extreme pressure properties provide excellent lubrication for both wire rope and open gear applications.

During the manufacture of new wire rope, it is recommended that the strands be first saturated with FLUID FILM® Liquid A, with the finished rope being sealed with WRN-EP, Wire Rope Dressing.

Where a low viscosity material is desired for a slushing compound, the use of FLUID FILM® Gel WRL is recommended. This product also has extreme pressure properties.

Wire Rope Dressing is manufactured from high quality petroleum base stocks, carefully blended with selected soaps and additives. It is designed as a field dressing for drum hoist ropes and is equally recommended for rope lubrication on shovels and drag lines.

At ambient temperatures between -40 °C and +50 °C, wire ropes are protected by a tenacious film that adheres firmly to the rope. Fling-off and sling-off are virtually eliminated so lubricant consumption and housekeeping concerns are minimized. Wire Rope Dressing is formulated using non-asphaltic base stocks which minimize peeling, cracking and flaking off in cold weather. The formulation is also designed to ensure complete coverage of the rope while preventing excessive lubricant buildup.

Wire Rope Dressing is formulated using mineral base oils blended with molybdenum disulfide and solid graphite lubricant. Crown wires retain a tough, cohesive lubricant film even after passing over the sheave and idler wheels or the hoist drum. The cohesive nature of Wire Rope Dressing also contributes to reduced fling off and sling off while in service.

Wire Rope Dressing offers exceptional water resistance. Moderate amounts of water can be absorbed by the grease with little or no change in NLGI penetration. In field tests, the majority of shaft water seen was in the form of beads on the surface of the lubricant.

Wire Rope Dressing is recommended for application either by split-box, pressurized canister or spray method onto hoist drum wire ropes in underground mining, dragline or electro-mechanical shovel operations. Always protect Wire Rope Dressing from contamination with dust.

ROCOL Wire Rope Dressing is sufficiently fluid enough to penetrate through the strands to the core of the rope whilst being sufficiently greasy to resist fling off.

ROCOL Wire Rope Dressing exhibits excellent lubrication properties which reduces wear on the wires and strands thereby maximising the service life of the rope.

A specially formulated penetrating lubricant for wire ropes. Can be applied directly onto wet ropes while providing excellent adhesive properties, reducing consumption. Prevents inner strand corrosion and rubbing wear. It is an all-season product that does not require change of grades as temperatures fluctuate. Applicable manually or through most automatic lube systems. Useful temperature range -46°C to 60°C (-50°F to 140°F).

ROCOL® Wire Rope Dressing is highly resistant to water and provides excellent corrosion protection making it suitable for use in salt water environments even under water.

WRN-EP Wire Rope Lubricant may be applied using a leather or lamb"s wool glove. When a considerable length of wire is to be coated, it may be advantageous to apply as follows: Form a cone of leather, about two feet long and six inches in diameter at the base. Both base and apex are left open with the wire rope passing through the apex. The apex is tightly lashed around the wire with marlin for about six inches. WRN-EP is applied to the wire with a rag, then the leather cone is dragged along the wire (or vice versa) so that the excess is scraped off into the cone, the remainder being well worked into the rope crevices. The amount of material left on the wire can be regulated by adjusting the marlin lashing. Too heavy an application not only wastes material but also can result in throw-off, particularly in running cable.
