TECHLUBE HD 20L P BK1

WATERBASED LUBRICANT TECHLUBE HD 20L P BK1 is a non-flammable, water-based heavy-duty cable pulling lubricant designed for underground power cable installations. Specially developed for heavy cables and difficult cable pulls, it provides superior friction reduction between the cable and all forms of conduit, including multiple concrete duct, helping to reduce the risk of cable damage during installation.

Techlube HD adheres strongly to cables in wet conditions and resists wash-off in water-filled ducts. It dries slowly to form a thin, friction-reducing film that retains its slip and helps maintain duct lubrication for additional cable installations or removals in the same duct. The lubricant is non-toxic and substantially biodegradable and is suitable for use with electrical and power cables.

Key Features

• Easy-to-apply, water-based high-performance polymer cable lubricant.
• Strong adhesion to cable and duct for superior friction reduction.
• Helps reduce the risk of cable damage during cable pulling.
• Supports regular pulling tension during cable installation.
• Dries slowly to form a thin friction-reducing film that retains its slip.
• Retains duct lubrication, allowing additional cable installations or removals in the same duct.
• Continues to lubricate the cable jacket when ducts are flooded.
• Temperature stability.
• Does not contain salt, detergent or grease which can degrade cable jackets.
• No threat to the environment.
