Wire Die Shop

The Diamond Die Repair Shop at Ken-tron repairs wire dies as they are worn due to the heat and friction of wire drawing.

Diamond wire dies must have precise angles to allow entry of the wire and reduction of the width of the wire. They must have the proper degree of angle and length of surface for the material of the wire to expand in length.

Our die shop uses diamond powder and wire as the shaping tools in their equipment to repair the angles and restore the die to a consistent and usable size.
