Trolley Wire Lube is a semifluid lithium grease specifically developed for the lubrication of mine trolley wires and shoes. With proper maintenance and frequent relubrication, it extends the life of the wires and the sliders while keeping downtime and operating expenses to a minimum. Trolley Wire Lube is manufactured with high-quality paraffinic base oils thickened with lithium 12-hydroxystearate soap. It is fortified with 10% graphite to reduce friction between the slider and the cable and help extend cable life. Trolley Wire Lube can be applied by a trolley wire brush applicator box, or it can be pumped to the wire by a direct grease line through a centralized grease system. Its special friction-reducing properties allow for less frequent application than many other trolley wire lubricants. Applications: - Trolley wires and shoes
- Cables and wires exposed to moisture or saltwater
- Wire ropes
- Hoists, cranes and aerial tramways
- Sliding mechanisms on underground mining equipment
