3M™ Wire Pulling Lubricant Communications
3M™ Wire Pulling Lubricant Communications is a slow-drying, water-based liquid lubricant formulated for lightguide cable pulling. The lubricant produces a
low coefficient of friction that lessens the chance of lightguide cable damage from high pulling forces. Wire Pulling Lubricant Communications provides
maximum tension reduction for long fiber optic pulls, multiple bend pulls and pulls in hot environments. It will not stress crack low-density polyethylene and
is compatible with a broad range of cable jackets.

3M™ Wire Pulling Lubricant Wax
3M™ Wire Pulling Lubricant Wax can be used and stored in temperatures as high as 194°F (90°C), making it the choice for hot weather applications. The
thick, consistent lubricant does not liquefy or separate with hot aging; it scoops and applies easily to wire and cable without runs or drips in hot
temperatures; and it will not evaporate too soon after pulls. The lubricant`s low friction coefficient lessens the chance of wire damage from high pulling
forces, wipes off the cable quickly and cleanly and leaves less residue in the conduit to block future pulls or prevent removal. Because Wire Pulling Lubricant
Wax can be immersed in water for 30 minutes with minimal weight loss, it is also the choice for wet weather applications.
