Wire Pulling Lubricant 1 gal

Ideal 31-391 wire pulling lubricant comes in a one-gallon yellow pail for electrical and data-cable installers. The water-based paste contains PTFE to reduce friction during long conduit runs. It suits contractors who need a stable lubricant that stays in place on vertical pulls.

Installation and common issues

Apply the paste directly to the cable jacket before feeding it into the conduit. The formula works between 32 and 190 degrees Fahrenheit so it remains effective in cold or hot environments. Clean-up is simple with water because the base is water-soluble. Buyers who need a non-staining clear gel or a lubricant rated for specific fire-stop assemblies should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the lubricant is flowing properly during a pull?

The paste should coat the cable evenly and reduce friction noticeably as it feeds through the conduit without binding or excessive resistance.

What comes in the container and do I need any extra tools to apply it?

The 1 gal pail contains the yellow PTFE-based paste ready to use; a brush, gloved hand or squeeze bottle for application is not included.
