Answer from Ningbo Changshi: Lubrication is not just a helpful accessory; it's a critical component of any underground cable pull. It is a fundamental strategy for managing friction, which is the leading cause of cable damage during installation.

A proper, water-based lubricant provides a thin, slick film between the cable jacket and the conduit wall. This dramatically reduces the coefficient of friction. The benefits of this reduction are:

• Reduced Pulling Tension: By lowering friction, the required pulling force drops significantly. This directly protects the cable from over-stressing and micro-damage to its internal conductors and insulation.

• Extended Pull Lengths: A lower friction coefficient allows for much longer continuous pulls, reducing the number of costly and time-consuming splices required in a project.

• Protection for Equipment: Less tension on the line means less strain on the pulling winch and its components, extending the service life of the equipment.

We supply a range of high-performance lubricants specifically formulated to work with our equipment and various cable types, ensuring maximum efficiency and safety.
