Paramount Die’s wire drawing system is used by wire producers to reduce a cross-section of wire by pulling the wire through a single die or a series of drawing dies. There are many applications for wire drawing, including electrical wiring, construction reinforcement, cables, medical and surgical applications, springs, staples, tire cord, fencing, nails, and welding wire.

Welding Wire

Did you know?

Enough welding wire is produced every year to circle the globe several times. Hundreds of thousands of wire drawing dies are consumed during the production of welding wire.

Tire Cord

Did you know?

There are more than 1 billion tires produced every year and each tire contains bands of high tensile-strength steel wire encased in a rubber compound. Millions of wire dies are consumed each year in the production of tire cord wire.

Spring Wire

Did you know?

Millions of heavy duty and light vehicle engine valve, piston, fuel injection, transmission, and clutch springs are produced each year. Hundreds of thousands of wire drawing dies are consumed annually during the production of spring wire.

PC Strand

Did you know?

PC strand is primarily used in pre-stressed concrete buildings, bridges, parking decks, and other structures. High carbon steel rod is drawn through carbide wire dies before being used as concrete reinforcement.

Fasteners

Did you know?

All over the world millions of screws, bolts, nuts, rivets, nails, and staples are produced each year. Carbide wire drawing dies are essential to the production of these fasteners.

Wire Rope / Cable

Did you know?

Wire rope and cable are used in many industries – spanning aerospace and construction to medical and transportation. Wire drawing dies are used to form the control, constraint, and security cables used in these industries.
