Blachford Corp
Booth: 09E02
Blachford Corporation is a wire lubricant
and specialty chemical supplier. Based in
the USA and Canada, Blachford has been
supplying the global wire drawing industry
and many of the world’s largest wire
drawing companies since the 1950s with
cost effective, meticulously researched,
and innovative wire drawing lubricant
programs tailored to the exacting technical
specifications of individual wire drawing
processes.
When the wire industry needed assistance
to reduce and control dust, Blachford
responded with chemically modified
dry drawing lubricants designed to help
address the problem.
Blachford’s low dust dry lubricants reduce
dust creation in multiple ways. They are
more adhesive than standard dry lubricants
and therefore are less likely to detach from
the wire; more flexible than standard dry
lubricants and have a lower tendency to
shatter when the wire bends around pulleys
or capstans; and the feathers are more
cohesive than standard dry lubricants so
they have a lower tendency to break up
and become airborne.
All of these attributes have been designed
into Blachford’s low dust dry lubricants to
help its customers meet the demands of
dust control. This is only one example of
Blachford’s capability to create innovative
products that meet the needs of the overall
wire drawing industry.
