Accu-Lube JL-12 is an opaque gel formulated specifically for tube bending applications. It can be pumped or hand-applied directly to the tube or bending mandrels leaving a clean coating on the mandrel that will not build up over time. Accu-Lube JL-12 is designed to “stay where it is applied” eliminating the mess of conventional lubricants. No cleaning is required before welding and it is easily cleaned before paint or plating. Accu-Lube JL-12 enables substantial cost saving over conventional products that flow down tubes, by reducing consumption and improving housekeeping as well as tool or mandrel life. Accu-Lube JL-12 is supplied ready to use and is available in 5 and 55 gallon containers.
