The punch points are machined with a 1/4-degree back taper to reduce friction during stripping to extend tool life.
Stripper guides are precisely manufactured from high quality tool steel with superior strength and exceptional accuracy and concentricity.
These features combine to improve piece part quality, extend tool life and reduce tooling costs.
Containing schematic drawings of each tool component, information includes both specification detail and application criteria to make the selection process easy.
