For demanding stamping, piercing, and forming operations, achieving consistent, high-tolerance results is paramount. Standard tooling often falls short, leading to premature wear, dimensional drift, and costly downtime. This is where specialized, engineered components make the critical difference. Our High Precision H40S Tungsten Carbide Punches are manufactured to exacting specifications to deliver unparalleled performance. These H40S Carbide Precision Stamping Punches are the cornerstone of reliable production, offering exceptional wear resistance and dimensional stability for millions of cycles. Engineered for complex applications in electronics, automotive, and medical device manufacturing, each of our H40S Tungsten Carbide Precision Punch Pins undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of modern precision tooling.
The Precision H40S Carbide Die Punches are defined by their superior material properties and precise engineering. Fabricated from a premium grade of tungsten carbide (H40S), these punches exhibit an optimal balance of hardness and toughness, significantly outperforming traditional high-speed steel (HSS) tools. The advanced microstructure of the carbide substrate resists adhesive wear, abrasion, and chipping, even when processing challenging materials like stainless steel, copper alloys, and specialized composites. A critical feature is the ultra-fine surface finish, which minimizes friction and material pickup, ensuring clean shearing and prolonging the life of both the punch and the corresponding die. The geometry of each Precision H40S Carbide Die Punch is held to micron-level tolerances, guaranteeing repeatable accuracy and contributing to the overall integrity of the stamped component. This combination of material science and manufacturing precision makes it an indispensable tool for high-volume, high-precision production environments.
| Nominal Diameter (mm) | Tolerance on Diameter (mm) | Straightness Tolerance (mm per 100mm) | Recommended Clearance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.50 - 1.00 | -0.002 / -0.005 | ≤ 0.003 | 3-5% of material thickness |
| 1.01 - 3.00 | -0.003 / -0.008 | ≤ 0.004 | 5-8% of material thickness |
| 3.01 - 6.00 | -0.005 / -0.012 | ≤ 0.005 | 8-10% of material thickness |
| 6.01 - 10.00 | -0.008 / -0.015 | ≤ 0.006 | 10-12% of material thickness |
| Workpiece Material | Relative Wear Life vs. HSS | Key Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Cold Rolled Steel (CRS) | 15x - 25x | Excellent for high-volume blanking. |
| Stainless Steel (300 Series) | 20x - 35x | Superior resistance to work hardening and galling. |
| Copper & Brass Alloys | 30x - 50x | Minimizes material adhesion and ensures clean edges. |
| Silicon Steel / Electrical Laminations | 25x - 40x | Maintains sharp edge for burr-free cutting of abrasive material. |
| Precision Shims & Foils (< 0.1mm) | Not directly comparable | Essential for maintaining ultra-tight tolerances and part consistency. |
