A fluid, coating wire rope lubricant which provides a non-tacky durable self-healing film to
reduce wear and corrosion under extreme conditions of load and moisture. Penetrates deep
into the core of running wire ropes to provide against fretting corrosion. Contains
ALMASOL®, LE’s exclusive inorganic solid lubricant, to reduce wear and friction.
