Quick Length Adjustment

Button(after June 1999)

To adjust the length of the punch with the Quick Length Adjustment System, press the Quick Length Adjustment button and rotate the Quick Length Adjustment guide counterclockwise for punch length extension, or clockwise for punch length retraction until the button “clicks” into the next stop. Each ‘click’ adjusts the punch .008(0.2).

To provide proper stripper lead for each station, set punch face flush with stripper and retract punch as follows:

four ‘clicks’ or .032(0.8) for 2” C stationeight ‘clicks’ or .064(1.6) for 3 1/2” D stationfour ‘clicks’ or .032(0.8) for 4 1/2” E station

16 stops or ‘clicks’ completes one revolution of the Quick Length Adjustment punch head. No tools are required and no need to loosen the drawbolt.


Mate Slug Free® DieMate Slug Free® Die

Punch penetrates the material. Slug fractures away from sheet.

Punch retracts and slug is free to fall down and away through exit taper of the Slug Free die.

Material held securely by stripper before punch makes contact.

Pressure point constricts slug. Punch stroke bottoms out as slug squeezes past pressure point.


Slug Free Light™ DieSlug Free Light™ Die

Improve piece part quality

Reduce broken tools

Increase grind life

Recommend for Punching Thin Material where die clearance is less than .008”(0.20mm)

Slots cut into die wall create protrusions on the slug to help eliminate slug pulling.

– Rooftop Shear

– Heavy Duty Slug Free® Die – Reinforced Design


Mate Heavy Duty DieC,D,E Stations

Mate Heavy Duty DieC,D,E Stations

Die exit --5% taper to preventslug jamming

Extra thickness--at die bottom reinforces die to work under heavier loads without breaking

Reinforced extension for extra strengthMaximum die openings smaller than standard dies because sufficient

reinforcing extension width must be retained to produce the strength necessary for heavy duty use.
