rocol 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.

Rocol Wire Rope Dressing is designed to penetrate to the wire rope core, protecting and lubricating inside and out to extend safe working life, reducing unplanned down time and replacement costs. Features include:-

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

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.

ROCOL Wire Rope Dressing is a tenacious, semi-fluid, non-melting grease designed for complete lubrication and corrosion protection on most types of wire ropes, particularly in hostile conditions.

Made to withstand corrosions at the highest levels, it’s water-resistant properties speak for itself because it can even be applied to your gears while submerged in seawater. The Rocol Biogen Tuflube has longlasting adhesion and metal protection for your slow-moving heavy machinery.

It’s a tough grease to beat. With self-healing properties, it’s stubborn against wash-off from seawater while providing your equipment with the smooth lubrication it needs from long days of operation.

KEY REQUIREMENTS OF WIRE ROPE LUBRICANTS Whilst it may be clear that good lubrication is a key part of maximising rope life, delivering the correct balance of properties in a single product is a significant challenge. A good wire rope lubricant must: Be easy, pleasant and safe to apply Achieve maximum penetration to ensure lubrication and protection of the rope core Resist wash-off and ing-off Have excellent corrosion protection Reduce friction and wear Allow easy inspection of the rope ROCOL® WIRE ROPE LUBRICANTS ROCOL have manufactured wire rope lubricants for many years. This has allowed...

PSEUDOPLASTIC WIRE ROPE DRESSING One of the most difficult problems encountered in formulating wire rope lubricants is finding the optimum balance between good penetration properties and resistance to water wash-off. Good penetration is achieved by low viscosity products such as oils but these have poor resistance Good wash-off resistance is achieved by highly adhesive grease-like products but these have poor penetration properties Until now there has been a trade off between these competing requirements. However, thanks to its pseudoplastic rheology, WIRESHIELD achieves maximum penetration...

THE DIFFERENCE IS CLEAR The key safety check for wire rope users is a visual inspection of the condition of the rope. Traditional wire rope lubricants contain black solid lubricants such as graphite and molybdenum disulphide. These materials make the lubricant unpleasant to handle and impossible to see through. WIRESHIELD™ uses an advanced load carrying system based on sub-micron white solids. The result is a nished product that is both clean to handle and translucent in use - without compromising the load carrying or anti-wear properties. Below is an illustration of the translucency of the...

COMPREHENSIVE RANGE ROCOL manufacture a comprehensive range of wire rope lubricants.

The unique blend of lubricating solids contained in the product reduces the internal friction and wear often...

WIRE ROPE LUBRICATION Methods of rope lubrication range from traditional, unsophisticated techniques such as brushes and swabs to dedicated, high performance equipment. ROCOL wire rope lubricants are designed to be as easy to apply as possible by whichever method is most convenient. While there is no single method that is “right” and works in all situations, the modern trend is to move away from manual application, to automated systems which: Maximise efciency of lubricant delivery on to the rope Improve health and safety by reducing operator contact with the rope and lubricant To make the...

CASE HISTORIES CLIENT: P&O FERRIES Product: WIRESHIELD™ Location: Dover, UK Application Details: The Pride of Kent crosses the channel to Calais up to 10 times a day. The vessel is moored using steel wire ropes which can be immersed in sea water up to 20 times a day and are exposed to extreme coastal weather conditions. In order to lubricate the wire ropes, sh oil was applied to them on a regular basis. Although easy to apply and offering reasonable penetration to the rope core the sh oil produced unsatisfactory results, including poor wash-off resistance, leading to increased lubrication...

CLIENT: MARMAGOA PORT TRUST CLIENT: BAE SYSTEMS – SHIPLIFT ROPES Product: WIRE ROPE Dressing Product: WIRE ROPE Dressing Application Details: The wire ropes on the bulk iron ore unloaders suffered from a high degree of wear due to a combination of the large amount of abrasive iron ore dust in the atmosphere and the heavy duty nature of the unloading operation. As a result the ropes were replaced every three to four weeks costing both time and money. Required Specication: Good penetration properties to ensure that the rope core received effective lubrication Increase the operational life of...
