FLUID FILM® WRO-EP

Permanently soft, tacky extreme-pressure gel for corrosion protection and lubrication of wire rope, rigging and open gears; resists washout in tidal areas.

FLUID FILM® WRO-EP is a wire rope lubricant with extreme pressure properties, recommended for general maintenance of wire rope. It provides corrosion protection and lubrication for standing and running rigging, drag lines and bridge cable. Its high tackiness minimizes throw-off on higher-speed running rigging and gives higher resistance to water abrasion and washout in tidal areas.
