Punch and Die Punching systems Precision headed punches

Precision headed punches

The most critical and most difficult of all requirements in die building is alignment — getting the punch in line with the die button with equal clearance. Alignment has the greatest effect on die productivity. Without it, misalignment increases wear and creates bending stress on the punches that greatly increases the risk of breakage.

Versatile’s precision tolerance and concentricity gives three times better alignment. Dies run better with Versatile. Better alignment — longer runs, less downtime and better parts.

DAYTON® JEKTOLE®, the punch version with ejector pin. During regrinding operation, the ejector pin is locked. Thus you do not lose time for disassembling the punch.

DAYTON Keeper Keys are the perfect solution for regrinding.
