Approximate Volume Of Lubrication Required For Cable Jetting In Various Size Microducts

FIG1-Pour lubricant into Microduct prior to application.

FIG2-During the construction of the Air Blowing Micro Cable, pour the lubricant into the Fiberblowing Machines and follow the Air Blowing Micro Cable into the microduct.

After a lot of construction experience, we have come to a conclusion on how to use the correct amount of lubricant in the construction to achieve the best lubrication effect.FCST offers the microduct cable placing lubrication estimate shown in Table 1 to place microduct cable in various size microducts. Pour approximately 75% of the lubricant indicated in Table 1 directly into the micro-duct ahead of the missile with the remainder of the lubricant being placed on the cable during the placing operation.

Table 1-Approximate Volume of Lubrication Required For Cable Jetting in Various Size Microducts

Note:the actual quantity of lubrication used on any placing operation varies and is dependent upon the size, condition, and wall type of the microduct and the material in the duct and cable jacket.

The cable blowing lubricant provided by FCST is made from a variety of non-irritating and non-corrosive raw materials, and is a milky white thick liquid. After the water volatilizes, the lubricating material can adhere to the surface of the cable object for a long time to form a layer of lubricating film, which can protect the surface of the Air Blowing Micro Cable and the inner wall of the pipe, reduce the coefficient of friction and reduce the resistance. And increase the traction transmission speed, improve the laying speed of Air Blowing Micro Cable, reduce the damage rate of Air Blowing Micro Cable, improve labor productivity and reduce costs. It can also be used for pulling cables at room temperature, which is convenient to use, easy to clean, non-polluting, and will not stick to skin and clothing. Excellent lubricating properties greatly reduce the pulling force required for cables to pass through conduits and corners.
