Product catalog summary
Introduction
ROCOL® has been a leading provider of high-performance lubrication solutions for over 130 years, serving industries such as marine and offshore. Their products are renowned for their superior performance, problem-solving capabilities, high quality, and technical innovation.

Wire Rope Lubrication
Wire ropes require lubrication to improve performance and longevity. Essential features of wire rope lubricants include excellent corrosion protection, maximum penetration, ease of application, resistance to wash-off, and functionality across a range of temperatures. BIOGEN WIRESHIELD is a lubricant compliant with VGP and European Ecolabel standards, offering exceptional corrosion resistance and suitability for extreme temperatures.

PFPE Greases
PFPE greases are designed for harsh environments where conventional greases fail. They provide broad temperature service, exceptional compatibility with rubbers, plastics, and metals, and resistance to acid, solvent, and chemical attacks. These greases are ideal for marine and offshore applications, offering vacuum resistance and reduced odor.

Anti-Seize & Assembly
ROCOL's anti-seize products are formulated to reduce downtime and assembly costs, offering protection against galling, pick-up, and corrosion. They provide excellent water resistance and are suitable for subsea applications.

Open Gear Lubricants
ROCOL's open gear lubricants protect against corrosion and wear, extending the life of gear teeth. They are suitable for use in underwater currents and high loads, offering excellent adhesion and EP performance.

Case Study
Fugro Subsea Services Ltd conducted a trial with BIOGEN WIRESHIELD on ROVs, confirming its performance and ecological benefits. The lubricant met stringent environmental standards required for offshore operations, ensuring its effectiveness in demanding conditions.

Conclusion
ROCOL continues to innovate and provide lubrication solutions that meet the challenging demands of the marine and offshore industries, ensuring both operational efficiency and environmental compliance.

Wire ropes are like complex machines requiring dedicated lubricants to perform ALTHOUGH SIMPLE IN APPEARANCE, THE INTRICATE CONSTRUCTION AND MULTITUDE OF DEMANDS PLACED ON WIRE ROPES MEANS THAT, LIKE ANY MACHINE, THEY MUST BE LUBRICATED TO ACHIEVE OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE AND SERVICE LIFE. Reducing the internal friction|jslt._ generated during load application & removal and the bending of the rope over sheaves and drums is vital. It is generally accepted that the bend fatigue life of a lubricated wire rope can be up to 60% longer than that of a non-lubricated rope. Protecting the rope from the often severely...

PFPE GREASES PART CODE NLGI NUMBER BASE FLUID VISCOSITY TEMPERATURE RANGE * PLEASE ENQUIRE FOR ADDITIONAL PACK SIZES VACUUM RESISTANT The PFPE base fluids used in ROCOL® PFPE greases have extremely low volatility due to their long carbon chains, which prevents the grease from evaporating when exposed to high vacuum or extensive periods of high temperature. ROCOL YVAC3 is the preferred lubricant for high vacuum applications: Vapour Pressure at +20˚C An added benefit of the low volatility of PFPE greases is reduced odour, making it ideal for use in highly sensitive en
