Dayton Lamina Kpb 31 175 Solid Mold Die Blank Punch

Product Description

The DAYTON LAMINA KPB 31 175 is a solid mold die blank punch engineered for precision stamping and die-making applications. Part of the Regular (KPB) Series, this punch features a basic head style with a 7/16-inch head diameter and a 5/16-inch shank diameter. The head height measures 1/8 inch, and the overall length (OAL) is 1.75 inches. Constructed from A2 grade tool steel, it delivers the hardness and wear resistance required in production tooling environments. This component is typically installed and maintained by tool-and-die makers and precision machining professionals working with metal stamping dies and mold assemblies.

This blank punch is suited for use in solid mold die sets in light to medium-duty stamping operations. Its compact OAL of 1.75 inches makes it appropriate for tight-clearance die stations. The KPB Series is a standard configuration used across a wide range of progressive and single-stage tooling setups in metal fabrication shops and stamping facilities. The basic head design allows for straightforward retention in standard punch holder configurations without additional modification.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified tool-and-die makers or precision machining technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the press before servicing or replacing punch components. Verify head and shank dimensions against the die plate and retainer specifications before installation to ensure proper fit and alignment. Follow applicable OSHA machine guarding and lockout/tagout procedures during any die maintenance work.
