cold drawing

Cold drawing is a manufacturing process where steel or other metals are pulled through a shaped die to reduce their diameter and increase their length without heating the material. This process enhances the metal’s strength, surface finish, and dimensional accuracy by working it at room temperature. It is commonly used to produce wires, rods, and tubes with precise specifications. Cold drawing improves the material’s internal structure, making it tougher and more durable, while also achieving a smooth surface and tight tolerances. The process is valued for creating high-quality, precise metal products efficiently.
