WIRE ROPE LUBRICATION

Wire rope is lubricated during manufacturing so that the
strands, and individual wires in strands, may move as the
rope moves and bends. A wire rope cannot be lubricated
sufficiently during manufacture to last its entire life.
Therefore, new lubricant must be added periodically
throughout the life of a rope to replace factory lubricant which
is used or lost.
NOTE:
For more detailed information concerning the lubrication and
inspection of wire rope, refer to Wire Rope, page 1-17.
