DRAG ROPE LUBRICANT HF Drum Chain and Cable Fluids

Whitmore’s Drag Rope Lubricant HF is equally beneficial to ropes sheaves. It coats the external strands of wire ropes, then transfers to the sheave contact areas and protects both the rope and sheave. Rope life is extended and sheave rebuild and replacement costs are dramatically reduced. The same benefit applies to drum laggings.

Whitmore’s Drag Rope Lubricant HF is a blend of anti-wear additives in a heavy asphaltic base. The viscosity is reduced using a TCLP-SAFE non-chlorinated solvent. After application to the rope, the solvent dries and a durable coating forms on both rope and sheave.

On some Draglines, in certain dig and dump cycles, the sheave can rotate momentarily in the opposite direction to the travel of the rope. Drag Rope Lubricant HF forms a coating that is dense enough to prevent sliding abrasion that can shorten the life of components.

With Drag Rope Lubricant HF there is some penetration into the rope, but it does not reach the inner strands and does not dilute the grease that was installed by the original equipment manufacturer.

BENEFITS:

• TCLP-SAFE – passes EPA Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure, which reduces disposal costs.
• EXCELLENT ANTIWEAR AND EP CAPABILITY – greatly extends the life of ropes and sheaves.
• RUST PROTECTION – selected additives protect against rust and corrosion formation.
• NON-CHLORINATED FORMULATION – no ozone depleting chemicals.

APPLICATIONS:

Drag Rope Lubricant HF can be used to extend the life of any wire rope including Hoist and Drag ropes on Draglines, and ropes used on Cranes and Mining Shovels.

Easily applied by automatic or manual systems. Whitmore’s Drag Rope Lubricant dries quickly to a tack-free finish.
