LE Wirelife Monolec Penetrating Lubricant
LE Wirelife® Monolec® Penetrating Lubricant (2001) is a versatile, wear-reducing oil with excellent corrosion resistance and high load-carrying (EP) properties. It penetrates to the core of wire ropes, whether running or stationary, and is also an excellent penetrating lubricant for chains of all sizes and many other industrial applications. A petroleum solvent enhances penetration, then evaporates to leave a film of heavy-bodied lubricant that protects and lubricates each strand and resists leakage from the rope core. When used with Wirelife Almasol® Coating Lubricant, maximum protection and wear reduction is achieved.
