At “wire Southeast Asia” Condat will showcase its comprehensive offer of tailored soluble lubricants for electric wires (copper and aluminum) as well as for copper-coated, zinc-coated and low to high carbon content wires for various applications.

“Vivafil SL 2200”: a game-changing solution for copper / zinc coated wires

For specific applications such as welding wire, cables and ropes -with different surface preparation-, staples and concrete fiber, Condat presents a cost-effective and responsible solution: “Vicafil SL 2200”.

Highly concentrated, this soluble significantly reduces transportation costs and environmental impact by minimizing water content.

Key benefits:

– Superior lubricity: “Vicafil SL 2200” enables users to reduce their annual lubricant consumption by up to 20%, or to drastically increase the die lifetime at equivalent concentrations.

– Outstanding bath stability: “Vicafil SL 2200” remains stable in hard water and constantly high temperature use (50°C) with limited risk of phase separation and performance loss. This lubricant is also highly resistant to bacterial growth. This characteristic ensures extended bath life and fewer bath changes, thus contributing to higher productivity thanks to reduced downtime.

– Excellent acid resistance for higher bath lifetime: “Vicafil SL 2200” composition enables to highly resist to acid pollution which is a mandatory feature to use it in skin-pass operation after copper platting stage. Less draining, so consumption can be reduced and productivity improved.

With “Vicafil SL 2200”, Condat offers a sustainable, high-performance solution that directly supports cost savings and environmental goals.

Steelcord expertise: a comprehensive lubricating offer

When it comes to steelcord applications, Condat is the only supplier able to support all your wire processing steps:

– For dry drawing: Condat’s “Sumac” and “Santale” dry drawing soaps are recognized worldwide for their performance and consistency in steelcord wire production.

– For wet drawing: free from ethylene diamine (EDA), a substance restricted in Europe, “Clearcord 100” is a cutting-edge wet drawing lubricant for steelcord.

Key advantages:

– High concentration: less water transported, maximize efficiency with each delivery.

– Excellent bath and wire cleanliness: reduce maintenance frequency and improve productivity.

– Superior bath stability: significantly extend bath life and reduce overall consumption.

– For patenting process: Condat’s “Polytherm PA11” is a water-based solution designed to heat treatment operations used to enhance the ductility of the metal surface for redraw. This product replaces traditional lead baths used in the patenting process, thus enhancing operator safety and offering a sustainable alternative to this process.

The “Polytherm PA11” baths demonstrate excellent resistance to pollutants typically carried over from dry drawing previous stages. It also contributes to extended bath life and reduced consumption.

With its innovative solutions, Condat continues to pioneer environmentally responsible, high-performance solutions for the wire industry. Whether for electric wires, welding wires, staples, hose wire or steelcord production, Condat soluble lubricants meet both the technical and environmental challenges of tomorrow.
