*If making thicker pellets, the die set can operate just the same without spacers.
Recommended max force = Is the maximum force you can put the die set under. This includes a 50% safety margin which is industry standard.
Typical force for quality pellets = This is the range we recommend using that will get you a great pellet and is much less than the recommended max force.

High Strength Heat Treated Steel
25x25mm (~1 x 1 inch) Pellets Dies are used to make 25x25 mm square briquettes.
If you need other sizes making - please let us know with the custom die form.
Die made of hardened tool steel (Rockwell hardness >C60) for long lasting trouble free performance. 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.
