Abstract
Abstract A magnet wire having a nylon outer coating is described which is capable of power insertion into coil slots in a locking wire size range by virtue of a specific lubricant outer coating. The lubricant comprises a mixture of paraffin wax, hydrogenated triglyceride and ester lubricant composition comprising esters of fatty alcohols and fatty acids. An internal ester lubricant composition comprised of esters of fatty alcohols and fatty acids and/or an internal hydrogenated triglyceride lubricant composition can be added to the nylon coatings to further improve ease of insertability.
