Non-aqueous thread lube
This range of products comprises non-aqueous lubricants designed to reduce frictional properties during abrasion. Quick drying, oil/wax based, these lubricants can be applied by lick-roll or Godet process. It ensures that the coated threads can be immediately wound into cones and shrink wrapped without the fear of a microbial attack.
Typical coefficient of friction of a good non-aqueous thread lube for a pick up of 3.5-4% is around 0.1 when typically measured using Zweigle friction tester.
