Engineered to form highly stable water-soluble emulsions that deliver exceptional lubricity, cooling, and bath longevity across every stage of the drawing process.
The copper wire drawing process demands highly specialised lubrication capable of managing high-speed friction, intense heat, and the generation of fine copper dust. As copper rods are pulled through a series of progressively smaller dies to form fine or ultra-fine electrical wire, the lubricant must simultaneously minimise die wear, cool the mechanical interface, and prevent surface oxidation or staining on the copper wire.
Prymol's Copper Wire Drawing (CWD) lubricants are engineered to form highly stable water-soluble emulsions that deliver exceptional lubricity, cooling, and bath longevity.
A premium water-soluble lubricant for heavy-duty copper rod breakdown and medium wire drawing, with an EP additive balance that builds a robust boundary film inside the dies.
Heavy-Duty ChoiceA low-viscosity, superior-wetting formulation engineered for high-speed fine and ultra-fine copper wire drawing, leaving a clean, non-sticky protective residue.
Fine-Wire ChoiceFrom heavy-duty rod breakdown to high-speed fine and ultra-fine wire drawing — each formulation is precisely matched to the demands of its drawing stage.
This premium, water-soluble lubricant is specially formulated for heavy-duty copper rod breakdown and medium wire drawing operations. It features an advanced balance of natural fatty esters and extreme-pressure additives that build a robust boundary lubrication film inside the drawing dies. It effectively minimises die wear, prevents wire breakage under high tension, and facilitates the rapid settling of copper fines in the centralised filtration tank, maintaining a clean operating system.
Engineered specifically for high-speed fine and ultra-fine copper wire drawing applications. This formulation provides low-viscosity fluid mobility and superior surface-wetting properties, allowing the fluid to enter precision dies instantaneously. It leaves a microscopic, clean, non-sticky protective residue on the drawn wire that prevents atmospheric tarnishing and ensures smooth winding, making it ideal for wires bound for subsequent enameling or insulation processes.
Matching the formulation to the drawing stage protects die life, bath cleanliness, and wire surface quality. Use this quick reference, or contact our technical team for a bath concentration recommendation.
| Grade | Best Suited For | Key Strength |
|---|---|---|
| CWD 7040 | Rod breakdown & medium wire | Die wear reduction & fines settling |
| CWD 15060 | Fine & ultra-fine wire drawing | Surface wetting & clean residue |
High-boundary lubricity reduces mechanical friction, minimising die replacement costs and downtime.
Contains advanced copper inhibitors that safeguard the drawn wire from tarnishing, staining, or turning green.
Strongly resists hard water salts and bacterial degradation, preventing foul odours and extending bath life.
From 20-litre buckets for on-site top-ups to full 210-litre drums for centralised bath systems — available across both CWD formulations.
Both grades available across all pack sizes. Bulk pricing available on request.
