Abstract

A CVD diamond wire drawing die has smaller diamond grains adjacent an initial diamond growth surface with larger diamond grains adjacent an opposing surface with an opening having a wire bearing portion of substantially circular cross-section determinative of the diameter of the wire positioned more closely adjacent to the initial growth surface in a region of smaller grains than to final large grained opposing surface.
