We offer replacements for your existing air wipes in Niehoff, Samp, or 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, when compared with its Alumina counterpart, offers a service life of at least 5 times as long. Indeed, most customers reported a service life of 10 times.

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