Product Description

The DAYTON LAMINA KPB 31 150 M2 is a solid mold die blank punch machined from M2 grade high speed steel. It features a basic head style with a 7/16 inch head diameter, 5/16 inch shank diameter, and 1/8 inch head height. Overall length is 1.5 inches. This punch is part of the Regular KPB series and is designed for use in stamping, blanking, and die tooling operations. It is installed and maintained by tool and die makers, press operators, and precision machining professionals working with metal forming dies.

Installation Notes

Installation of die blank punches is performed by qualified tool and die makers or precision machining professionals.

Punches should be press-fit or secured according to the die set manufacturer specifications using appropriate arbor press tooling. Inspect the punch retainer and stripper plate clearances before placing the die back into service.
