When using high forces you want a small amount of unsheathed plunger to prevent bucking of the plunger, so I) we keep the plunger short and ii) there are no spacers in the low profile die sets. These sets are made from stainless steel so can be heated to 250 °C (482\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e°\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eF) \u003c\/span\u003eduring pressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSleeve is ground to high tolerances to allows the plunger to slide through perfectly.

At small diameters, you only need a small load (around 100 - 2000 lb!) for very high stresses on plunger and the powder. We do not suggest using with a hydraulic press which does not have an accurate read out for low forces. Do not use this die with a big, heavy press - you can easily exceed the yield stress of the steel. Think before hand, if you are close to being able to break steel then you are probably giving enough load to push powder together.  You can even push down hard with your hand or tap it with a mallet to create sufficient force for compaction.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pellet Press Die Sets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42713007980703,"sku":"PPD02C002","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/6672\/0584\/files\/8_5973ba63-acce-4fda-8ca5-462eb47138d5.jpg?v=1712424157","url":"https:\/\/www.pelletpressdiesets.com\/he\/products\/2-mm-low-profile-pellet-press-die-set","provider":"Pellet Press Die Sets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
