Viper Wire Rope Lubricators
Durham Lifting provides fast, effective and safe wire rope lubrication system from Viper WRL, the world leader in crane rope lubrication and maintenance.
What is a Viper Wire Rope Lubricator?
Viper Wire Rope Lubricators (WRL) are advanced systems designed to clean, degrease, and re-lubricate wire ropes in a continuous, efficient process. They improve rope life, reduce maintenance time, and enhance safety by avoiding manual lubrication at height.
Benefits of Choosing Viper WRL
Up to 300% increase in rope life compared to manual lubrication.
Labour savings — re-lubrication time is drastically reduced (days → hours).
Cleaner operations — no grease leakages, no mess, no waste.
Safer maintenance — operators can lubricate from a safe distance without manual contact.
Better penetration — the Viper polyurethane seal allows lubricant into the core of the rope where corrosion is most damaging
