Wire ropes play a major role in various equipment and structures. There are different constructions of wire ropes since they are designed for different applications. Thus, wire ropes could be characterized as complex mechanical devices that have many moving parts all working in tandem to help support and move an object (lifting, hoisting) or a load (mooring, towing).
In order for a wire rope to perform better, it has to be properly maintained with special equipment and type of grease during the various operations (cranes, drilling rigs, mooring, lifting or hoisting) throughout its whole service life. Environmental or extreme weather conditions affect the lifetime and the performance of wire ropes.
Katradis Wire Rope Lubricants are used in order to reduce friction among the individual wires when moving internally during an operation, but also in order to protect wire ropes against corrosion.
