In every application from electronics to construction, wire drawing dies are the essential tools used to produce the millions of miles of wire drawn. For applications of drawing non-ferrous, ferrous, precious and refractory metals that require ultra-fine finishes, single crystal diamond is the preferred wire drawing material. The Monodie synthetic single crystal diamond range of wire drawing die blanks, developed by Element Six takes the unpredictability out of wire drawing applications.

Suggested application
Wire drawing die blank products
Monodie MD111 offers the highest level of quality and consistency in wire drawing die blanks. Each diamond blank is produced by a stringently controlled single crystal synthesis process. Properties of the material include exceptional wear resistance resulting from its 3 point {111} crystal orientation. Coupled with excellent thermal conductivity and thermal stability at temperatures up to 1100˚C in a non-oxidising environment, the end user benefits are consistent tool life and a high quality finish on the drawn wire.
