Urethane Tooling for Mark-free Bending
February 1, 2010Comments New urethane products from Wilson Tool Intl., White Bear Lake, MN, help press-brake operators avoid sheet marking during bending. Products available include urethane dies for American Precision and European styles; holders and pads, which also reduce tonnage by as much as 20 percent; and rolls—available in two thicknesses (0.015 and 0.030 in.) and in an extra-durable high-density 0.022-in.-thick version—to provide a protective layer across the top of the dies.
