Cindol 4683 was developed especially for use as a lubricant for drawingand forming aluminum. It can be used for difficult non-ferrous stampingand forming operations as well as for rod breakdown drawing ofaluminum wire.In addition to its remarkable lubricating characteristics, Cindol 4683contains a unique additive, ND. This dramatically lowers the coefficientof friction of steel to aluminum, aluminum to aluminum and can also beused on stainless steel, bronze, brass, galvanized steel, titanium andother metals.When Cindol 4683 is used for wire drawing, it has the followingadvantages over conventional lubricants: brighter wire, permits fasterdrawing speeds, dies run cooler and build-up on the die is reduced.The protective film which remains on the wire keeps it bright and clean.There is no problem with adhesion of insulation coatings.
Before Cindol 4683 is charged into a system, machines should bethoroughly cleaned. In order to obtain optimum results from Cindol4683, the system must be kept free of moisture.(MOISTUREINCREASES DIE WEAR AND GIVES A POOR SURFACE FINISH). Sumptemperatures are regulated at 120°F + 10°F (49° + 5°C). At no timeshould the temperature be allowed to drop below 85°F (29.4°C) or exceed150°F (66.0°C).
