Learn more about our newest metal forming grade for wire dies.
Hyperion Materials & Technologies continues to develop new products for the wire drawing industry and is proud to introduce a new innovative grade, 6UDPlus.

6UDPlus is a high-performance carbide grade developed for drawing steel cord fine wires. The unique formulation combines an ultrafine cemented carbide with special additives to maximize corrosion resistance and hardness without compromising toughness, providing the wire drawing die with magnificent wear resistance.

This premium wire drawing grade developed and patented by Hyperion Materials & Technologies is top-of-the-market-quality.  Dies manufactured of grade 6UDPlus provide optimal performance when producing saw, tire cord, welding, and ultra-tensile wires. Designed for more demanding applications with more substantial efficiency and longevity, dies made of grade 6UDPlus allow machines to run longer batches of wire and perform efficiently by delivering considerably less die consumption than most wet drawing grades.
