Crane Wheel Lubrication

Rapid Rail Lube System logo

An effective solution to the issue of crane wheel and rail wear has long been an issue for our customers and has prompted us to develop Crane Wheel Lubrication along side Perma.

Our goal is to reduce the coefficient of friction and therefore prolong the life of the rail and wheels.

Rapid Rail automatic crane wheel lubricators have been proven in the most arduous of surroundings and delivered spectacular results for our clients. This simple self contained unit does not rely on outside power sources and can be regulated to suit the crane duty cycle or simply be switched off or even transferred to another crane.

The specially formulated compound in the delivery canister applies, via the application tip, a measured amount of grease to the inner flange of the crane wheel transferring directly onto the crane rail directly reducing the wear.

The Lube system probe has Molybdenum Disulfide (MOLY) as an additive which is ideal for applications where nylon wears against metal, as it fills metal's microscopic pores creating a smoother metal surface.

The probe is easy and cost effective to change. Wear rates reduce dramatically as the friction rates decrease. The Rapid Rail Crane Wheel Lubrication System will typically pay back its return on investment in one year of operation.

Available in kit form

The units are now available in a simple kit form ready for self fitting by the end user or agent.
