VMRCS Manual Rope Cleaner
THE ULTIMATE IN WIRE ROPE CLEANING TECHNOLOGY – SAFE, FAST, & EFFECTIVE
Build-up of contamination causes accelerated wear on ropes and sheaves, while also acting as an abrasive on interacting surfaces. Inspections are a critical part of any wire rope maintenance regime. Removal of old lubricant and contamination is important to assist in uncovering any potential issues.
To achieve optimum performance of wire rope assets, it is critical that old lubricant and contamination be removed from the outer strands and valleys of the rope prior to inspections and before re-lubrication is completed. Viper WRL has revolutionized the process of cleaning ropes by combining CAD-based design with manufacturing techniques and composite materials to deliver the Viper Manual Rope Cleaner Solution Kit.
Rope Cleaner (VRC) Selection
The Viper Manual Rope Cleaner Solution Kit (VMRCS) is used in conjunction with our Viper Rope Cleaners (VRC). This custom-designed collar provides a unique guide for both our standard VRC and our Smooth Bore Cleaners. The collar incorporates two high-density poly guide bushes that keep the collar and therefore the rope cleaners centered on the wire rope.
