Description
The SRM-20 Round Drawplate is engineered for jewelers and metalsmiths who demand the highest standard in wire drawing. Spanning 36 holes from 0.26 mm to 2.20 mm, this is widely regarded as the most popular and useful configuration among tungsten carbide drawplates — and for good reason. Each hole features a thick, highly polished tungsten carbide insert ground to ultra-smooth perfection, so drawn wire exits clean, round, and blemish-free every time.
Tungsten carbide drawplates vary widely in quality, and many imitations exist on the market. The SRM-20 is manufactured in Taiwan by Shen-Hwa for Ikohe, and it sets the benchmark that others attempt — but rarely match. The thickness and polish of the carbide inserts are what separate this plate from inferior alternatives. As with any quality drawplate, use a suitable lubricant and anneal wire regularly to minimize hole wear and ease the drawing process.
