WIRE ROPE LUBRICANT LOW VISCOSITY

Feature

Wire Rope Lubricant Low Viscosity, commonly known was EA Wire Rope Lubricant, is specially formulated for ropes requiring a penetrating lubricant. Wire Rope Lubricant Low Viscosity’s penetrating action draws the lubricant to the core, coating the inner strands, protecting them from rubbing wear and corrosion. Wire Rope Lubricant Low Viscosity exhibits superior water displacement to provide a positive film, even on wet ropes. The anti- wear and anti-corrosion properties protect the wire rope inside and out, as well as protecting sheaves and drums.

Applications

Mining - dragline drag and hoist ropes, drift ropes, crane cables, winch ropes and tow cables

Marine - tug tow ropes, shipboard crane cables and winch ropes

Features and Benefits

• All-season

• Water displacement

• Semi-dry film

• Anti-wear properties

• Corrosion inhibited 

General Description

Has a useful application temperature range of -46°C to 60°C (-50°F to 140°F). No need to change grades as temperatures fluctuate.

Proprietary water displacing agent allows for relubrication directly on to wet ropes.

Being non-sticky in nature, will not attract dirt, dust or other abrasive contaminants.

Provides extended rope life and added serviceability to sheaves and drums.

Protects ropes from internal rust and subsequent strand failure.

Wire Rope Lubricant Low Viscosity contains a powerful water displacing agent to facilitate application directly on to wet ropes. It provides excellent adhesive properties, reducing consumption, and has high load carrying additives to extend rope life. The inclusion of inhibitors reduces corrosion and rust. It can be applied manually or through most automatic lube systems.
