Cleveland Steel Tool 41918 Round Ironworker Die 9/16 in

Product Description

The CLEVELAND STEEL TOOL 41918 is a round ironworker die designed for use in ironworker punch press machines to produce clean, precise 9/16-inch diameter round holes in steel plate, angle iron, flat bar, and similar structural stock. The die features a 2.375-inch head diameter and a 1.25-inch head height, dimensions that suit standard ironworker tooling seats commonly found in fabrication shops and steel erection operations. Installation and replacement are handled by qualified ironworker operators and metal fabricators. The 41918 is a purpose-built tooling component that pairs with a matching punch to complete the punching set.

This die is suited for light structural fabrication, sign manufacturing, steel service centers, and general ironworker operations where repetitive round hole punching is required. It is intended for use in ironworker machines that accept tooling with a 2-3/8-inch head diameter. Typical applications include punching bolt holes in structural steel members, brackets, and plate stock. Shops performing production-volume hole punching will find this die sized for a commonly specified fastener clearance hole.

Key Features

• 9/16-inch round hole diameter for standard fastener clearance punching
• 2.375-inch head diameter fits ironworker tooling seats of that specification
• 1.25-inch head height for proper seating and alignment in the die holder
• Round die shape produces clean, consistent circular slugs with each stroke
• Weighs 1.2 pounds for easy handling during tooling changeovers

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental tooling die for ironworker machines that accept a 2-3/8-inch head diameter round die. Verify your ironworker tooling seat dimensions before ordering to confirm fit.

Installation Notes

Ironworker dies are installed and serviced by qualified metal fabricators or ironworker machine operators. Always disengage and lock out the machine fully before changing tooling. Ensure the die is seated flush and secured in the die holder before resuming operation. Pairing this die with a correctly sized matching punch is required for safe and accurate punching.
