Hydrotex Releases Techni-Glide Cable-Pulling LubricantSep 20, 2010 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Hydrotex, a manufacturer and distributor of lubricant and fuel improver solutions, announced the release of its new formula for Techni-Glide, a cable-pulling lubricant. According to Hydrotex, the new formula qualifies for the Hydrotex Lubricants For A Healthier Planet product line. Techni-Glide is an environmentally intelligent fluid designed for use in all types of cable-pulling operations. This product is especially recommended for pulling cable over long distances, through multiple bends and in building installations. Techni-Glide is non-toxic, non-bioaccumulative and chemically inert and has Low VOC. Biodegradability as measured by the OECD 301B-28 day Sturm Test was 96.23 percent. Techni-Glide is virtually non-toxic in the OECD 203 Method Aquatic Toxicity Test and these attributes make it the lubricant of choice for marine and port installations and in any area where there is a concern of ground water, soil or water contamination. "This product is specifically designed to be environmentally sensitive and we are encouraged that it is now in the Hydrotex Lubricants For A Healthier Planet product line which allows customers to use a product and improve upon sustainability initiatives," said VP Krystyna Muldoon. Techni-Glide is compatible with all commonly used cable jacket and conduit materials and the application rate is up to 60 percent less than other pulling lubricants.
