Extending the life of wire ropes and structural strands
around the world

 

Grignard has unparalleled experience developing innovative corrosion protection solutions for suspension bridges, tower guy wires, ski towlines, and other running and static wire rope and cable applications in the harshest conditions, around the world.

We begin by carefully evaluating your specific application, including wire rope type, specifications and operating environment. Then our experienced chemists recommend the ideal Grignard product to meet your specific needs.
