The distinction between dry drawing and wet drawing is that in the latter process steel wire is immersed in a dilute solution of copper sulphate or stannous sulphate or in a mixture of these salts, and, then in fermented rye liquor. From this latter bath the wire is drawn in the wet state. Wet drawn steel wire may have a coppery surface produced by chemical replacement of copper by iron in the sulfate solution.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - dry%20drawing
