Simple-to-use, basic mechanical descaling systems (Model 920 Air Jet and Model 1030 water jet descalers) are well suited for producers of industrial quality wire products where emphasis is on maintaining the lowest possible overall production cost. More feature-rich Wilco descaling systems allow customers to use wire rods of various qualities with the objective being producing a consistently cleaned wire rod suitable for making into higher quality wire products. These Wilco descaling systems (model 1250 and model 1750 automatic wire brush descalers) incorporate the Wilco automatic rod brushing machine into the process. Eight circular wire brushes are positioned around the rod circumference to aggressively clean the rod surface of secondary scale and red rust which are detrimental to producing high quality wire products. More specialised Wilco descaling systems (model 1060 descaling system with lubricant pre-coating and model LRD scale breaker for large diameter rods) satisfy the needs of more specialised producers. The model 1060 applies lubricant pre-coating compounds in the final stage of the mechanical descaling process. Manufacturers of high carbon wire and those working with very high finishing speeds benefit from the increased lubrication established by the pre-coating compound. The Wilco large rod scale breaker (Model LRD) is designed for processing larger diameter rods up to 19mm in diameter. Sheave offset is controlled by hydraulics, thereby allowing simple straight-through string up of the scale breaker.
