Penn-Lube PWL9702 is a range of high performance, cable pulling lubricants which have been specially formulated to allow you to pull with less force over longer distances. The emulsion base with Silicone and optional microbeads* offers excellent friction reduction. With a high clingability and forming a thin hydrophobic coating the friction is reduced under both high and low sidewall pressures. The long drying time means that it carries on lubricating even months after application.
Type PWL9702NB - Silicone / water based thixotropic cable puling lubricant, sitable for pumping or pouring. Suitable for all common cable types.
Type PWL9702A* - Has the same properties as PWL9702NB but this premier product is specially formulated with added microbeads to reduce pulling friction by up to 70%.
Type PWL9702W - Specially formulated for low temperature applications it has the same high performance as the other PWL grades.
