Engineered Drawing Formulations
Calcium Wire Drawing Powder
Formulated with high lime carrier content to endure severe frictional heat during breakdown passes on MS and binding wires.
CU-56 Copper Drawing Oil
Specialized heavy-duty lubricant formulated for multi-die continuous copper drawing with superior copper particulate suspension and zero staining.
Sodium Wire Drawing Powder
High TFM water-soluble granules providing an ultra-thin, clean film for high-speed GI wire drawing with easy washability prior to plating.
D-85 Black EP Lubricant
Graphite-fortified extreme-pressure compound designed for heavy reduction, high-carbon steel, and submerged arc welding wire drafting.
Wet Wire Drawing Paste
High-cooling water-dispersible synthetic compound for fine wire drawing benches, galvanized wire, and stainless steel wire processing.
Binding Wire Drawing Powder
Cost-effective dry drawing lubricant specifically formulated for continuous construction binding wire drawing operations.
Technical Selection: Calcium vs Sodium vs Oil
When to Select Calcium
Calcium stearate formulations act as hard boundary lubricants with high melting points (140Ā°Cā160Ā°C). Ideal for:
- ā Mechanically descaled or pickled wire rods
- ā High-pressure breakdown dies (first passes)
- ā Low and medium carbon steel, MS & binding wire
- ā Operations requiring thick residual protective films
When to Select Sodium
Sodium stearate provides superior lubricity at higher drawing velocities (12ā25 m/s) with exceptional cleanliness:
- ā High-speed multi-pass continuous drawing benches
- ā Galvanized (GI) wire & bright wire applications
- ā Wires requiring post-draw electroplating or coating
- ā Completely water-washable and leaves zero carbon soot in annealing
When to Select CU-56 Copper Oil
CU-56 is engineered exclusively for high-heat non-ferrous copper wire rod drawing operations:
- ā Copper rod breakdown from 8.0mm to 1.2mm
- ā Submerged / spray multi-die copper drawing machines
- ā Prevents copper fines agglomeration and oxidation
- ā Superior bright anneal compatibility with zero copper staining

Procurement & Technical FAQs
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for wire drawing powder?
Our standard bulk commercial MOQ starts at 500 KG to 1 Metric Ton (supplied in 50 KG HDPE bags). However, for new wire drawing mills conducting machine qualification trials, we provide 1ā2 KG trial sample kits.
How does CU-56 copper wire drawing oil prevent staining?
CU-56 contains specialized oxidation inhibitors and copper passivators that prevent the formation of dark copper oxides even under high interfacial temperatures. It burns completely clean in inline bright annealing tubes.
Can you formulate custom mesh sizes or lime-to-soap ratios?
Yes. As a primary manufacturer, we can adjust particle size (mesh distribution) and soap-to-carrier ratios depending on whether your plant runs mechanical descaling, acid pickling, or borax coating.
What is your standard delivery lead time for North India?
Because our manufacturing unit is centrally located in Sahibabad (Ghaziabad), shipments to Delhi-NCR, Meerut, Faridabad, Sonipat, and western UP are delivered within 24 to 48 hours. Interstate consignments (Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat) take 2 to 4 days.
