The German wire drawing cradle of Central Franconia, the Upper Palatinate and the Märkische Kreis are still strongholds of wire drawers today. “We see a lot of potential for our wire drawing products in this country, but experience shows that many trade visitors from abroad also come to the ‘wire’,” knows Markus Mühleisen, who has already been to several trade fairs as Strategic Business Unit Manager of Zeller+Gmelin. Zeller+Gmelin supplies a comprehensive range of cooling lubricants for wire production and can now look back on more than six decades of lubricant know-how in the wire drawing segment. Whether wire drawing fluids for continuous cast wire rod, copper and aluminium alloys or for steel, stainless steel and steel cord - at Zeller+Gmelin, wire drawers will find a suitable lubricant for almost every application. The Research and Development in Eislingen works closely with customers and is constantly developing innovative solutions for users.

Cleanly drawn
One of the latest wire drawing agents is "Multidraw CU MF T" for copper wire production. The drawing agent concentrate for medium and fine drawing is water-miscible and, according to Zeller+Gmelin, is also ideally suited for drawing tinned wires in addition to bare copper. “Our new type of copper wire drawing agent is designed for drawing up to 0.07mm diameter and is characterised by its excellent lubricity with a very low foaming tendency,” according to product manager Markus Mühleisen's practical experience at user companies. “In addition, its innovative formulation ensures excellent long-term stability of emulsion and pH value.”
