ViperMkII Wire Rope Lubrication – The Solution
The manual lubrication of wire ropes via the drip, brush, spatula or rubber glove method has always been a difficult maintenance task. Typically messy asphaltic or “blackjack” type products were employed which had coating abilities but very little lubrication or penetration properties. Manual application can lead to environmental and safety issues as too much lubricant leads to dripping and wastage.
The Viper MkII Wire Rope Lubricator provides fast and effective lubrication of wire ropes from 8mm to 62mm in diameter, at speeds up to 1000 metres per hour. It eliminates the slow and labour-intensive task of manual lubrication, at the same time achieving superior results by forcing quality lubricant under pressure right through to the wire rope core.

Viper MkII System Description
The system consists of the Lubricator Collar – which houses the polyurethane seals to suit the specific size rope. The assembly is clamped around the rope and anchored to a fixed point, and then the rope is pulled through the collar. Lubricant is applied utilizing a high pressure grease pump with lubricant forced between the strands to the centre of the rope. Scraper plates at each end of the collar remove dirt and old lubricant plus smooth broken wires before they can damage the seal.
