Gardner Bender 79-003 Wire-Aide Wire Pulling Lubricant, Greaseless Fiber-Optic Wire Insulation, 5 Gal. Pail, Yellow

Worked great and not harmful to cable jacket.

Worked great! Probably only need a tiny bottle! But worth the money!

Works great

This made pulling wire GODLY. I tried pulling wire without this for a little while but oh my god this is so much easier. The lube wipes off relatively easily.

Bought this item to see if it worked for lubricating cartridge cases during sizing. Works great. And, it is exponentially less expensive than same material from reloading companies.

easy to use

Worked great. I have limited strength in my hands, but was able to pull one end as my husband applied the lube and fed it through the other end. No problems with 4 aluminum cables taped together every 3 or so. Conduit 2 underground run was just under 100 ft. Our only problem was that the wire sold to us came up short because the idiot sales person apparently could not measure properly! So, now we have to splice it all to complete the job.

This goop has just the right level of squirt-ability and makes a tough wire pull much easier. I used it with pulling 5 #12 wires into 1/2 thinwall emt and could not have made it without it. As the label says, it dries to a nearly non existent residue and clean up is very easy. I dropped it everywhere and it does not leave a mark. The bottle is easy to squeeze and I recommend this highly.

Thanks

I could see this potentially working well to pull cable through conduit (maybe) as I have used a similar product for that use before....however, I bought it thinking it would solve a similar problem and it didnt. I figured it would work just as well to make grippy/tacky cables such as an iPhone power cable more smooth when going over some surfaces as to not get caught. I figured since it was designed to stay on a cable and keep it smooth, it should do the trick. Well, I used it generously on my OEM iPhone cables and other similar cables (studio headphone cables, XLR microphone cables, etc) with the same problem, to no avail. The compound did not remain on the cable, and also dried and the cables returned to their original sticky/tacky state. I tried multiple coats, still the same results. If it dries and returns to a tacky state so easily, how could it last long enough to pull a larger cable through conduit? Maybe I missed something, but I guess I will have to look elsewhere for now.
