When the wire you need is not the wire you have, you draw it down. The 39 holes here run from 2.80mm to 0.26mm — heavy bezel stock at one end, fine chain wire at the other — each marked in millimetres so you can step down in order without measuring twice. Our wire gauge guide covers which sizes earn their place at the bench.

Tungsten carbide inserts, press-fitted into a heavy-gauge steel plate, resist the wear that gradually opens up plain steel holes — so the diameter you draw in year three matches the diameter you drew in week one.

  • Features 39 holes covering a full 0.26mm to 2.80mm range.
  • Tungsten carbide inserts resist wear, ensuring consistent wire diameter over thousands of passes.
  • Each hole is clearly marked with its diameter in millimetres for quick identification.
  • Inserts are press-fitted into a heavy-gauge steel plate for stability on the bench.

Who it's for

An essential, UK-stocked tool for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and metalworkers drawing down gold, silver, or other non-ferrous wires. Also suitable for model makers and specialist craftspeople requiring precise wire gauges.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Ella K. ★★★★★

The holes are clearly marked in millimeters so I don't have to guess which one to use, and the tungsten carbide handles steel wire without any wear. Took my 1.6mm silver down to 0.8mm smoothly in just a few passes.

Scarlett W. ★★★★★

Pulled out a roll of 1.0mm copper to try the carbide inserts, and the wire slid through the 1.0mm hole without a single catch. The millimeter markings are crisp and easy to read, which makes finding the right size quick mid-work. Sitting at about 207mm long, it's stable on my bench and doesn't shift

Amelia R. ★★★★★

Working back and forth between the 2.8mm and the 0.4mm holes feels incredibly smooth—the tungsten carbide inserts grip evenly without any chatter. The size markings every step of the way saved me from constantly reaching for calipers mid-draw.
