New Improved Temperature Range for Wire Rope and Umbilical Grease

14.09.2015
New independent testing of the recently launched BIOGEN WIRESHIELD® wire rope and ROV umbilicals lubricant demonstrates consistently high lubrication performance within an industry-leading temperature range of -50ºC to +180ºC.



It means that offshore operators can depend on a single wire rope and ROV umbilical lubricant in all operating conditions. There is no risk of BIOGEN WIRESHIELD going brittle at very low temperatures, and at the highest operating temperatures, such as those endured by the wire ropes in active heave compensation (AHC) systems, the lubricant performs to the same high standard, eliminating the safety risks associated with inferior products melting and dripping onto decks.

BIOGEN WIRESHIELD is the total wire rope and lubricant solution:

● Proprietary additive pack provides outstanding corrosion protection: >4000 hours salt spray with no corrosion.
● Industry leading operating temperature range: -50°C to +180°C.
● “Intelligent grease” - Advanced pseudoplastic rheology reduces the viscosity of BIOGEN WIRESHIELD when it is being applied, improving its ability to penetrate strands. When at rest, the lubricant returns to its thicker grease consistency enhancing fling-off resistance.
● EU Ecolabel: Meets the most stringent environmental standards including the VGP.
● Unique additives ensure extreme resistance to water wash-off.
● BIOGEN WIRESHIELD is biodegradable, non-toxic and non-bio accumulative allowing simple and safe application.
