Drawing dies are typically used in the drawing of wire, rod, bar, and tube. The materials that are drawn are typically copper alloys, aluminum alloys, and steel alloys

Shaving dies are typically used to remove surface defects that are introduced in the drawing process. The shaving process can be used on a variety of steel alloys , copper alloys, and other materials.

Extrusion dies are typically used in an extrusion process where a slug of material is pushed through the die giving it a cross-sectional area (based on the shape of the extrusion die).

The United Die Company's swaging dies are typically used to point the ends of the material producing a taper to facilitate further processing.

Mandrels and Plugs are typically used to form and size the Inside Diameters of tubes and pipes.

Sectional tooling is mainly used in the production of sharp cornered flats and squares. Sizing changes are simple and quick with moving the end blocks.

Shear Blades are used after the drawing process to cut/shear the material to a desired length

Special tooling are peripheral tooling associated with the cold drawing process and metal forming.
