Wire Drawing Powder

Listing ID #383192

Drawing powder is used as the lubricating materials in the drawing process. Its main component is lime, water, animal oil, wax, soap, stearic acid, talc, and alkali. It can form a lubricating film between the drawn wire and the wire drawing die to reduce the friction and the force energy consumption; prevent the drawn wire bond to the wire drawing die because the temperature is higher in the drawing process, to reduce energy consumption and temperature during drawing, to extend the service life of the drawing die and ensure the product surface quality, and make uniform deformation; also it can prevent some features of steel wire after drawing, such as: residual lubricating film thickness, easy to clean, anti-rust, and other medium binding capacity, leading welding capabilities. The dry drawing lubricants are usually called lubricating powder, drawing powder, there are two kinds: Sodium soap and lime soap. Sodium soap is derived from fatty acids and alkali saponification reaction, calcium soap only by the fatty acids (fats) and white ash derived saponification. Customer can choose the different drawing powder according to the different drawing process. The price of the drawing lubricant is mainly influenced by the oil in the wire drawing powder Properties Of The Wire Drawing Powder :

• Can be firmly attached to the wire with the wire surface and into the drawing die, effectively separate the deformation zone of the two interfaces;
• Endure of the high pressure and high temperature, the lubricating film still maintain their continuity and lubricity without being destroyed in the high pressure and temperature, no coking, non-caking and deterioration that has the physical and Chemical stability;
• Good extension and lubrication, it can not only firmly attached to the steel surface, and can be extended with the deformation of steel, lubricating film of layer structure, combined with strong elements within each layer, weak combination between the molecular layers;
• The lubricant composition of the components and the drawn wire does not react chemically, doesn’t corrode the drawn wire, and easy to remove;
• The drawing powder does not pollute the environment, not harmful to humans, and abundant resources, low cost, easy to store.
