Chain and Wire Rope Lubrication

Chain and wire rope lubrication for tough industrial conditions

Every application has its own specific challenges. For chains and wire ropes used in tough industrial conditions, the lubrication has to be of particularly high quality. Surprisingly, many companies don’t lubricate their wire ropes at all. But this can cause corrosion and wear, both at the core and on the surface, which can lead to various kinds of hazards. If you want to avoid wear and friction in links and cores, it’s also worth being aware that chains and wire ropes need to be cleaned correctly so as not to risk damage.

The lubricants in our STABYLAN, CEDRACON, CEPLATTYN and RIVOLTA series are ideal for these very applications. Heat, cold, dust, dirt, moisture – it doesn’t matter. If you want a highly lubricating surface film with solid lubricants, take a look at the white and black products in our range. However extreme the conditions, our multifunctional lubricants will do the job.

To ensure the function, it is important to understand the specific requirements of each situation. All the above ranges contain products that are perfect if you need excellent creep, wetting or lubricating properties. Many of them also have a cleaning effect, without risking the function.

The range is used around the world, and includes modern, fully synthetic lubricants as well as traditional mineral oil based ones, with or without solid lubricants. The advanced synthetic chain lubricants perform particularly well in high and low temperature applications. Some of them are also suitable for sensitive environments where only biodegradable lubricants are allowed.

FUCHS’ experienced application engineers can help you find the right product for your chain or wire rope, and explain how to keep it clean also under operation.
