Cable Blowing Lubricant UP S LUB 20
Cable blowing lubricant UP-S-LUB-20 is a water-based polymer emulsion developed for micro and mini cable blowing applications. It reduces friction inside the duct, leaves a thin lubricating film, and helps improve blowing distance in real installation conditions.

UP-S-LUB-20 overview
UP-S-LUB-20 adheres to the cable surface and the internal duct wall, leaving a thin lubricating film without creating a “glue effect”. It is suitable for duct pre-lubrication and also for blowing machines with an oil / lubricant dispenser (project dependent setup).

How to use cable blowing lubricant UP-S-LUB-20
- Shake before use to ensure uniform emulsion.
- Apply into the duct (or use a compatible dispenser system on the machine).
- Pre-lubricate the duct with a sponge pig (recommended for stable film coverage).
- Blow the cable and adjust lubrication level based on route conditions.
- Keep it clean: avoid contamination of the bottle and application tools.
Works with rubber-wheel or iron-wheel drive systems (configuration dependent). For detailed guidance, refer to the datasheet: UP-S-LUB-20 PDF.

Standards & compliance notes
Lubricants used in telecom installation projects may be referenced against different standards depending on project requirements. For formal documentation, use the official datasheet as the primary reference.
- ISO lubricant classifications may be requested (project dependent)
- Smoke/toxicity requirements may be evaluated for certain sites (project dependent)
- Local rules for handling and disposal apply (country dependent)
Storage & handling
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Keep containers sealed to prevent contamination.
- Avoid storing near chemicals that may react with the emulsion.
- Check batch/expiry and discard expired product.
- Use clean dispensing tools and follow local disposal regulations for used/contaminated lubricant.
