Wire Drawing Fluids
BECHEM’s Unopol and Berudraw range are globally sought after lubricants for wire drawing processes of Copper, Aluminium, Steel and alloys.
Extreme surface pressures and specific frictional forces are critical aspects that affect tool and work piece in a wire drawing process. Knowledge of distribution of contact stresses and friction coefficients over the die surface is critical in formulating the right lubricant that has to perform under demanding conditions.
BECHEM’s Unopol and Berudraw range are globally sought after lubricants for wire drawing processes of Copper, Aluminium, Steel and alloys. These advanced lubricants provide superior lubricity ensuring excellent surface finish for drawn wires. The dynamic additive package extends the service life of the lubricant and drawing die as well.
