Abstract
Nowadays, the development of tube drawing process with a floating plug technique has moved our limit up to the production of thick-walled tubes; production of which still belongs to marginal techniques which are different from drawing of standard tubes. The submitted paper is basically a survey of research in fundamental characteristics of tube drawing with a floating plug with the aim to summarize some important results from the theory, which have not yet been published in any English publication. The purpose of this survey is to fill the gap in English literature to promote transfer and exploitation of knowledge. Research in fundamental characteristics was further developed and conditions under which it is possible to draw thick-walled tubes are defined. Confirmed possibility of thick-walled tubes drawing with support provided by a floating plug having negative overlap is the result of theoretical study and practical verification, which enables further moving of drawing process limit.
