Pellet Die Set with TiCN Coating for making 25 mm (~1 inch) pellets from powders.
With your die set order we’ll include:
- Die sleeve
- Plunger rod
- 2 x spacers
- Base plate
- Aluminium release ring with cutout for viewing pellet during release
Shipping: Free fast shipping across USA and Canada
Material: hardened tool steel (Rockwell hardness >C60) polished to a high tolerance fit.
This die set is made from the same hardened tool steel (Rockwell hardness >C60) as our other sets however it is coated with a thin layer of ultrahard TiCN (Rockwell hardness >C80). This coating provides additional protection when working with very hard materials such a Al2O3, prolonging lifetime of the set. It also has the added benefit of reducing friction on the die walls and improving corrosion resistance when working with materials which might attached the steel. Sleeve is polished to high tolerances to allow the hardened tool steel plunger to slide through perfectly. Plunger and spacers are made from high yield strength steel, machined and polished to high tolerance for the perfect fit. Interior surfaces ground to mirror-like finish.
Use this set if you are routinely using hard materials or those which might damage steel surface. If you would like us to make you a coated die set in another size - please contact us.
