WHERE TO BUYComplete your toughest wire and cable runs efficiently with nVent GARDNER BENDER 79-402 Super-Slick Cable-Pulling Lubricant. Specially formulated for high-performance wire pulling across a variety of power tool parts and accessories applications, this advanced design helps achieve 30 percent friction reduction for significantly lower pulling tension and protects against severe cable jacket abrasion. Whether you are routing heavy-duty lines through complex commercial conduits or working on a home electrical upgrade, this formulation ensures smooth, low-effort pulling. Designed to stand up to the most demanding environments, the advanced formula adheres throughout long pulls - slick film will not rub off or dry out on long pulls or re-pulls. It dries to a non-hardening slick film with excellent cling-ability, meaning it remains active and slick even during unexpected delays or multi-stage re-pulls. Its natural finish remains unobtrusive once installed, giving you a clean, low-profile result that is highly desired in modern installations and compatible with common cable jackets. This heavy-duty lubricant features robust physical characteristics built for extreme reliability on the job site. The stable profile allows it to withstand environmental extremes while maintaining its chemical integrity throughout extensive commercial wire pulling projects. Designed with the contractor and DIY enthusiast in mind, this lubricant easily cleans up with water and will not stain clothing. It is completely safe, non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-staining, and non-combustible, ensuring it treats your skin, the wire jackets, and the job site environment with care. Packaged in a high-capacity 1 gal. jug, it provides the volume required to keep your commercial inventory loaded and ready for delivery on major installations. This versatile solution is truly great for both home and commercial use.
