For some time, the importance of mechanical anisotrop} ' to deep drawing has been realized, but this has been attributed pri-marily to the resultant degree of resistance to straining in the through thickness direction. As a result of the work of Moore and Wallace [5] and the present study, it is evident that mechani cal anisotropy affects, in addition, the amount of stretching which the material may undergo before it necks down and frac-tures
