Dayton Lamina Hpb 100 350 M2 Solid Mold Die Blank Punch

Product Description

The DAYTON LAMINA HPB 100 350 M2 is a solid mold die blank punch designed for precision tooling applications in stamping and die-making operations. Built from M2 grade high-speed steel, this punch delivers consistent hardness in the 60-63 HRC range, making it well-suited for high-cycle punch and die work where wear resistance and dimensional stability are critical. The ball lock retention system provides secure seating in the die set and allows for fast, repeatable changeouts without special tooling. With a 1 inch shank diameter and an overall length of 3.5 inches, this punch fits standard die set configurations used in production tooling environments.

This blank punch is intended for use in mold and die tooling setups where a solid, unground punch body is required before secondary profiling or finishing operations. It serves as a starting-point blank for tool and die makers who need to grind or profile the punch face to a custom geometry. Typical applications include stamping dies, trim dies, and progressive die assemblies in manufacturing and fabrication shops. The Regular HPB series is a standard offering for toolrooms requiring consistent stock material in common shank sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation and secondary machining should be performed by a qualified tool and die maker or machinist familiar with punch and die assembly practices. De-energize and lock out all press equipment before servicing or replacing punch components. Ensure the ball lock retention mechanism is fully engaged and the punch is properly seated in the holder before returning the press to service. Follow applicable shop safety standards and press guarding requirements during any tooling changeout.
