Wire Rope Lubricant for Industrial Wire Ropes

It is a heavy-duty wire rope fluid with high-quality lubricating solids such as Molybdenum disulphide to provide high antiwear and load-carrying capacity. It is blended with additives such as rust and corrosion inhibitors and anti-oxidants to provide rust protection and oxidation stability for high temperature and heavy-duty applications. Mosil WR – 100 penetrates the surface of the rope quickly and efficiently to provide effective lubrication of inner strands. The boundary lubrication provided by Molybdenum reduces the strand wear thereby extending the rope life.

Top Four Traits of Synthetic Lubricants in Industrial Applications

Synthetic lubricants (Synthetic Oil & Grease) have been used in industrial applications for more than two decades. Synthetic lubricants effectively increase efficiency and operating production, making them incredible resources for great assets.

Equipment reliability linked with lubrication & Lubricants

Equipment reliability is a maintenance strategy also referred to as culture which, when implemented successfully, will help in reducing maintenance cost, improving equipment uptime and lowering the overall costs of production. Actually, the real meaning of equipment reliability is hidden behind terms like Proactive Maintenance, Asset Efficiency, Lubrication Management, Lean Manufacturing and even 5S. Let us understand more about how Lubricant & Lubrication can help in increasing plant and equipment reliability.

Managing Lubrication Tasks for Greater Reliability

More than 50 % of all bearing failures are due to inadequate lubrication practices as declared by the Lubrication Engineers. One other survey states, 80 % of the respondents stated lubrication was a problem. Such equipment failures continue to prove very costly in terms of lost production, labour and equipment life. As the limits of existing lubrication tracking methods become more apparent, separating lubrication from traditional Preventive Maintenance and Corrective Maintenance efforts to focus on lubrication reliability is increasingly being adopted as a solution.

Lubrication Methods Fall Short

Performing lubrication is elementary. It has been approached in the same way for many decades. However, it is much more complex than it is given credit for when a single plant can have thousands of pieces of equipment, multiple lubrication points and lubrication done at different intervals.

From daily tasks to semi-annual oil sampling to yearly tank draining or replacement; the required lube tasks can number in the hundreds of thousands per year.

While lube tasks are considered routine and often assigned to the newest technicians at the plant, it is critical to get the right lubricant in the right place at the right time using the right technique and also by the right person, every time to ensure machine condition and equipment reliability.

Yet it is far too easy to miss lube points, mix up industrial lubricants and over or under lubricate when relying on traditional lubrication-tracking methods. Read More: Equipment reliability linked with lubrication & Lubricants

Types Of Lubrication Methods Used In Industries

Lubricating systems are the systems used to assist the smooth and healthy operation of rotating machinery parts like gears, bearings, dies, chains, spindles, cables, pumps and rails.
