Polycrystalline diamonds, abbreviated as PCD, are man-made sintered diamonds and can be used for almost any type of wet or dry wire drawing application and are available in three main groups: unsupported and supported metal filled, and thermally stable.

For each group, several PCD blanks are available that match your wire surface finish needs as they are offered in diamond grain sizes ranging from 1 to 50 microns.

All PCD blanks contain randomly oriented diamond particles. The result is a perfectly round wear pattern for each die, ensuring that your wire remains round.

Let our experienced sales staff help you choose the most cost-effective or readily available diamond blank for your application or let us know if you specifically need a Sumitomo sumidia or Diamond innovations-Compax PCD blank.
