Ideal Industries 31-276 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will Ideal Velocity wire pulling lubricant harm THHN, XHHW or other jacketed cable?
Velocity is a specification-grade pulling lubricant formulated to be compatible with all popular cable types, so it can be used on standard building wire and jacketed cable without a separate product per insulation type. The formula is non-toxic, non-flammable and non-corrosive, which is what matters when it sits against insulation inside a conduit run.
2) Can I use this pulling lube on a cold-weather or hot attic job?
Velocity holds its performance from 40 F to 140 F, so it covers unheated winter work inside a building through hot summer attic and rooftop conduit pulls. Below 40 F it is outside the stated stability range.
3) Does wire pulling lubricant leave residue that is a problem in a fire-rated or plenum area?
The residue Velocity leaves behind is non-combustible, which is the property inspectors and facility electricians care about when lubricant stays in a conduit or raceway after the pull. The lubricant itself is also non-flammable.
4) Is a 1-quart bottle of Velocity enough, or should I buy the bucket for a long conduit run?
The 1-quart squeeze bottle (Ideal 31-276) is sized for controlled, hand-applied dosing and will cover multiple smaller installations, such as branch circuit and device-box work. For long high-count feeder pulls where you are coating cable continuously at the sweep, a quart goes fast, and you would step up to a larger pail size.
5) Will pulling lube actually cut the tension on a long pull with multiple bends?
That is what Velocity is built for. It gives maximum friction reduction to drop required pulling force, and it has a high cling factor so it stays on the cable jacket through long runs and multiple sweeps instead of being wiped off at the first bend. Lower tension means less risk of jacket damage and stretched conductors.
6) Is Ideal Velocity lubricant safe to use in occupied buildings like hospitals or schools?
The formula is environmentally safe, non-toxic, non-flammable and non-corrosive, so it is workable for occupied-facility MRO and retrofit work where solvent-based products would be a problem. Typical uses run from residential and commercial build-outs to industrial wiring, data center cable management and telecom infrastructure.
7) What is the Ideal part number for the quart bottle of Velocity pulling lubricant?
Order Ideal Industries 31-276. That is the Velocity wire pulling lubricant in the 1-quart squeeze bottle.
