COPPER WIRE AND ROD ALUMINUM WIRE DRAWING
Houghton also has products designed for steel wire drawing. They are designed to produce severe reductions in diameter when drawing round, carbon steel wire. The products contain high film strength agents and a unique solid film lubricant. This combination allows reduction of 45% or more and results in a bright, shiny finish on the wire.
Benefits include:
• Bright, shiny finishes• High percentage of reductions• Cooler die box temperatures

Cindol® Lubricants
Houghton’s Cindol line of oil lubricants is formulated with ND, a potent additive that dramatically lowers the coefficient of friction of steel-to-aluminum and aluminum-to- aluminum. It can also be used effectively on stainless steel, bronze, brass, galvanized steel, titanium and other metals. Cindol oils provide the following benefits:
• Superior surface finish• Lower friction between metals• Longer tool and die life• Reduced wear and galling• Decreased power requirements
Cindol 4601 – A light viscosity lubricant with “ND” additive for non-ferrous alloys
Cindol 4602 – A light viscosity lubricant for forming non-ferrous alloys
Cindol 4641 – Highly concentrated additive for use on ferrous, copper and aluminum alloys
Cindol 4683 – A unique metal forming lubricant with “ND” additive for use on aluminum and other metals
Cindol 4687-R – New wire lubricant designed for drawing all aluminum alloys and magnesium alloyed rod
