Copper wire drawing lubricant

METALUBE LUBRICOOL™ SERIES

An extensive and robust soluble wire drawing range of lubricants. Lubricool™ is designed for drawing non- ferrous wire and provides consistent and reliable performance over a wide variety of conditions. The range uses the latest synthetic technologies and has been developed for drawing applications from rod to superfine. The Lubricool™ range also includes products for the rolling of copper strip and continuous annealers.

Lubricool™ is currently used by many of the World's leading cable and non-ferrous wire producers. Lubricool™ is also recognised and endorsed by many machine manufacturers such as NIEHOFF, SAMP and SICTRA.

Features and benefits

• Excellent lubrication properties reduce wear on dies and cones and increases drawing speeds.
• Provides an exceptionally smooth, bright and clean finish to the drawn wire, making it suitable for annealing and plating processes as well as in the manufacture of insulated cable.
• Excellent emulsion stability and resistance to soap formation maximises sump life.
• Increased lubricity of the emulsion reduces wire break frequency.
• Superior detergency maintains the machines in a clean condition.
• Additive package combination produces a high resistance to excessive foaming and bacterial and fungal attack.
• Emulsion structure produces excellent filterability on both media (paper) type and hydrocyclone systems.
• Superior anti-corrosion properties to protect machine parts and the wire surface.
