Abstract

A method of forming a fine bore having the steps of effecting electro-forming on a core wire to form an electro-cast rod, slicing the electro-cast rod by forming chips each having the core wire and removing the core wire to thereby form in each chip a fine bore of a diameter coinciding with the diameter of the core wire and having a high circularity and cylindricalness. Since the fine bore is constituted by an electro-formed layer, the bore exhibits high wear resistance and, hence, a high durability when used as nozzle bore of an ink jet plotter.
