PPC DIE-THANE
GRADE |
DIE PAD SIZE (HEIGHT X WIDTH) |
| DT-25
|
Commonly used for V-forming up to 11 Ga. M.S. |
Can be used for V-forming up to 3/16" thick M.S.
Radius U-form up to 11 Ga. M.S.
Flat bottom U-form up to 16Ga. M.S. |
Used similar to 1" and 2" wide pads.
Can be used for deeper penetrations. Larger radius bends and wider channel. |
Most commonly used general purpose material. Recommended for most V-forming applications.
Recommended Maximum Deflection: 25%
|
DT-35
|
Used for lighter metals less than 20 Ga. M.S.) because of the higher deflections possible, this grade is commonly used for applications requiring deeper penetrations. Recommended Maximum Deflection: 35% |
| DT-15 |
Used for applications requiring higher blank holding and forming pressures. Used for forming harder metals (i.e. 5.5.), sharper inside radii and heavier gauges Recommended Maximum Deflection: 15% |
