All other components will be manufactured to match these dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of our annular die sets are custom-made, as we rarely produce the same OD and ID combination twice. The die set operates similarly to our standard pellet press dies, with the addition of a central pin that creates a ring-shaped cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe central pin fits inside the base plate, while the spacers and plunger are designed with holes to accommodate it. During pressing, there is no direct force applied to the central pin, so it remains stationary. After pressing, the base plate is removed, and a specially designed ejection pin is used to remove the central pin. Once removed, the ring-shaped pellet can be extracted in the same way as with our standard die sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded with your custom annular (ring) die set\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Die sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Plunger rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Plunger extractor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Central pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x Ring shaped spacers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Base plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Aluminium release ring with cutout for viewing pellet during release \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Additional release ring for removing long central pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCustom specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe die set will be manufactured according to the drawings provided, with the following custom parameters:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner diameter (ID) of the ring: as specified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter diameter (OD) of the ring: as specified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie sleeve outer diameter: 30 mm larger than the ID\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie sleeve height: as specified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: D2 tool steel\/440C Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Two7Lf0b198\" height=\"361\" width=\"642\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree shipping across USA and Europe\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes relating to your custom order\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufacturing lead time is approximately 6 weeks, plus delivery.
