Tungsten carbide wire drawing dies are tools with highly-polished, specially-shaped holes through which wire is drawn to reduce its diameter. They have a metal case and a tungsten carbide nib.
PCD wire drawing dies are made from metal case and a polycrystalline diamond nib, a synthetic material that provides superior resistance to cracking and wear.
When selecting tungsten carbide wire drawing dies, wire material and drawing parameters are important specifications to consider,main wires are:
- low carbon steel wires
- middle carbon steel wires
- high carbon steel wires
- stainless steel wires
- copper wires
- silver wires
- galvanized high-carbon steel
Drawing parameters include measurements such as inlet diameter, bell radius, entrance angle, approach angle, bearing, and back relief. Elongation, the ratio of length after drawing to the length prior to drawing is also an important consideration when choosing wire drawing dies.
Wire drawing dies are used with a variety of wire drawing tools and equipment. Straight wire drawing machine is one of the most common metal wire processing equipments,it can draw high carbon,medium carbon and low carbon steel wire, stainless steel wire, copper wire, alloy copper wire, aluminum alloy wire, etc.
wire drawing dies plays an important role in the wire drawing process,PCD wire drawing dies are often used for thin wires,and it is also trendy choice too in recent years bec of its good performance,tungsten carbide wire drawing dies are always used to draw thicker wires and application where PCD dies are too expensive.
