Wire drawing experiments were performed under laboratory conditions using the hexagonal close packed metals cobalt and magnesium. It was experimentally shown that the material flow in the peripheral region controls the drawability of both metals at ambient temperature. Further, it became apparent that the roughness peak parameter Rz(DIN) was a reasonable measure to characterise the wire surface with regard to the drawability. Rz(DIN) < 2 micro m resulted in a successful drawing process. On the other hand, Rz(DIN) > 4 micro m led to shear crack formation and failure of the cobalt wires. Magnesium was less susceptible to surface roughness effects on shear crack formation than cobalt. Thicker lubricant films were tolerated and even needed.
