SPC Performance 5 Pc Flared Hole Die Set

5 Pc Flared Hole Die Set

Often called "dimple dies", Flared Hole Dies are used in sheet-metal fabrications to provide rigidity and strength to flat, unsupported panels. Due to the esulting high strength-to-weight ratio applications promoted by the use of this technique, flared holes are found in many aircraft and race vehicle designs.

Beginning with comprehensive finite element analysis supported by extensive prototype testing, our light weight Flared Hole Dies are engineered to provide the optimum combination of performance attributes:

•Eliminate edge tearing when used on chromoly, even with edges hardened by laser cutting methods

•Will flare holes up to .090 chromoly or .125 mild steel

•Manufactured from high quality hardened tool steel
