PWL 9702NB does not contain microspheres and is therefore a lower cost alternative to our cable lubricant PWL 9702A (which does contain microspheres). However, PWL 9702NB still meets the British Telecom specification MAT 138A for cable lubricants. PWL 9702NB is non-toxic, non-flammable and has no physical or chemical effects on cable sheath or sub-duct.
