Soap for tube drawing operations

Description

WEDOLiT FW 1960 is a water-soluble alkaline soap for heavy drawing operations of steel tubes. The product is usually used as an immersion bath (bath temperature 167 - 194 °F, (75 – 90 °C)).

  • The product is designed to react with the zinc phosphate layer (which acts as lubricant) to form a zinc soap. The zinc phosphate layer should be at least 4 μm (at heavy forming operations, e.g. cold extrusion, up to 10 μm). Due to specific additives, a maximum conversion of zinc phosphate and the drawing media occurs, which results in an optimal performance regarding degree and rate of deformation
  • Can be used in very low concentrations of 5 - 10% as an aqueous solution (tube drawing). The best results are obtained with water free media
  • Offers (in combination with a zinc phosphate layer) very high cross-sectional reduction and high drawing velocities – up to 100 m/min (steel tubes with standard cross-sectional reduction)
