Polywater® Prelube 5000™ Microcable Blowing Lubricant |
|
|
|
Polywater® Prelube 5000™ is easy to use. It can be squeezed into the small diameter microducts.
Polywater® Prelube 5000™ works at extremely low coating levels. It coats further and more effectively than conventional blowing lubricants.
Polywater® Prelube 5000™ has proven superior in side-by-side testing in blown microcable installations.
Polywater® Prelube 5000™ is compatible with known microcable plastic jackets. However, it should not be used for resin-coated fiber cables.

Application
The microduct tubing must be pressure tight. Clean and dry the tubing by blowing a tight-fitting foam sponge through the microduct with high pressure.
If excess water or dirt comes from the microduct, repeat the process. Trapped water can block the air flow.
Prelube 5000™ is effective at quantities as low as 0.05 mg/cm². Squeeze recommended amount of lubricant from the table below into the duct.
Quantity can be measured with a syringe or estimated based on duct fill length (table below). Spread lubricant by blowing a foam carrier or sponge through the
microduct as many times as necessary to avoid puddling at the front of the duct.
The quantities of lubricant appropriate for any job will vary with the size, type, and condition of the duct. Use the recommendations bellow as a place to start and adjust as necessary.
