Proper lubrication of wire rope will extend operational life and  increase safety. Done correctly, it lubricates exterior surfaces as well  as the inside wires and core. Proper lubrication will help reduce  friction as the individual wires move over each other, and provide  corrosion protection. However, lubricating wire ropes can be difficult.  Manual lubrication via drip, brush, spatula or rubber glove method is a  messy, time-consuming maintenance task and can be hazardous to the  environment.

The Viper Wire Rope Lubricator is a much better solution. The Viper Mid  MK II provides fast, effective one-pass lubrication of wire ropes from  5/16 in (8 mm) to 2 5/8 in (67 mm) in diameter, at speeds up to 6,670 ft  (2,033 m) per hour. It eliminates the slow, labor-intensive task of  manual lubrication, at the same time achieving more thorough results by forcing wire rope lubricant under high pressure (up to 5,500  psi) right to the core of the wire rope.
