YATECH provides customers worldwide with a diverse selection of carbide tools for metal forming. This includes heading dies, carbide EDM blocks, specialized carbide blanks, and drawing dies for wire, bar, and tubes.
Stamping & Lamination
Corrosion-resistant tungsten carbide blocks are utilized in high-speed precision stamping progressive dies, motor core manufacturing dies, and semiconductor lead frame dies.
These blocks withstand corrosion, pitting, and cracking which often occur during electrical discharge machining, particularly in thick punches and large die segments.
Heading Dies and Punches for Metal Forming
Cold Heading Dies and Cold Heading Die Blanks
Tungsten carbide enables the utilisation of cold-forming technology for mass-producing high-volume parts such as screws, bolts, and rivets. Specific grades allow our heading dies to maintain longevity and provide superior part accuracy.
We produce durable cemented carbide fastener die blanks that meet customer and industry expectations. These fastener die blanks are crucial components in the cold heading process for the manufacturing of fasteners.
From wear resistance to heat resistance, a prolonged tool lifespan reduces production costs.
We collaborate with our clients to enhance performance and develop solutions for their fastener die blank requirements.
Tools and nibs for all drawing applications applications applications applications applications
The wire, bar and tube drawing process creates challenging friction conditions due to the high speeds of the wire, bar or tube passing through the die.
From polycrystalline diamond (PCD) and tungsten carbide die blanks to rough core dies and diamond compounds for polishing wire drawing dies, we can fulfill all your drawing needs.
YATECH has developed carbide grades specifically for drawing tools, which have optimal hardness and fracture toughness ratios. They exhibit minimal wear and provide a long service life.
Powder Molding Dies
Powder pressing molds come in two main types: metal-powder and non-metal-powder. Carbide powder-compacting dies exploit carbide’s high wear resistance, hardness and corrosion resistance to ensure dimensional accuracy and good surface finish in pressed parts.
Tungsten carbide powder-compacting dies offer unique advantages in powder metallurgy, medical and electronics industries.
Aspheric Glass Lens Molds
Binderless tungsten carbide or low-binder tungsten carbide (<0.5%) with a grain size of 0.1-0.2um is a very stable and excellent material, which can still maintain stable performance at high temperatures up to 800°C. Due to the absence of binderless tungsten carbide can achieve a very high mirror surface after coating. Due to the absence of bonded phase, the molds made can achieve high mirror surface after coating treatment, and the surface roughness of these molds can reach 10nm. binderless tungsten carbide can assist us in the rapid production of glass aspherical lens, germanium infrared lens and so on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which die types do you manufacture?
Wire drawing dies, cold heading dies, extrusion dies and forming dies — as nibs or complete assemblies.
Can you re-grind used dies?
Yes, worn dies can often be re-sized; contact us with die details for an assessment.
What information do you need to quote a die?
Wire or part material, diameter range, tolerance and drawing if available.
Do you support custom sizes for carbide dies?
Yes. We produce to your drawings (PDF, DWG or STEP). Send specifications and our engineers will confirm feasibility and provide a quote within 24 hours.
What is the typical lead time?
Standard items are usually shipped in 7–15 days. Custom dies depend on complexity and are confirmed with the quotation.
