COSMOS offers replacements for existing air wipes in Niehoff, Samp, and Sictra
multi-wire drawing lines, shown above.

AW 5 for Niehoff

 

To replace the Alumina flanged eyelets used in Niehoff multi-wire drawing lines, COSMOS developed air wipe AW 5 in diamond polished Ruby/Sapphire, which not only results in minimal friction but also offers a least service life 5 times as long compared with the Alumina eyelets.

 

The ruby is inlaid in a brass shell, electroless nickel plated to impart hardness and lubricity. For easy identification the shell bears a laser mark of the bore diameter. Listed below are the available ruby bore diameters with the corresponding part number and recommended wire diameter:

             Part No.         for wire Ø mm

            AW 5 – 0.3       0.2 – 0.25

            AW 5 – 0.4       0.3 – 0.35

            AW 5 – 0.5       0.4 – 0.45

            AW 5 – 0.6       0.5 – 0.55

            AW 5 – 0.8       0.6 – 0.75

            AW 5 – 1.4       0.8 – 1.30

 

            Air Wipe AW 5 is available only in pairs, inlaid with either ruby or sapphire wire guides.
