Wire Drawing Lubricant Powder

Wire drawing powder, also wire drawing lubricant powder, is usually

divided into calcium-based and nano-based.

In the process of wire cold drawing deformation, wire drawing powder

can play a lubricating role, reduce friction, reduce energy consumption,

and prolong the service life of wire drawing die. In the drawing process,

a lubricating film can also be formed on the surface of the steel wire,

which can protect the steel wire.

Wire manufactures have different process, the type of wire drawing machine may in

“water cooling”, “air cooling”, “straight-in” or “pulley drawing” type.

The drawing speed, the quality of the wire drawing dies, the material of the drawn

wire,  the finished wire, steps of drawing dies all require different wire drawing

lubricant powder. So some drawing process use 2 or 3 types drawing powder, some

even need to match a new material in using.
