 |
| Ideal
for Radius V-Bends or U-Bends |
|
 |
 |
Most
Poly-Dies are square shaped, thus offering
four working surfaces. |
|
Scratch-Free Forming
- Sharp Bends or Radius Bends with the same bottom die.
|
|
Versatility - Sharp
or Radius V-Bends, different gauges, different angles,
different radii can be formed with the same bottom die
pad, just by changing the punches. |
|
Unique Design - Designed
to fit inside standard steel retainers, POLY DIES offer
the advantages of economy, light-weight, ease-of-use and
safety. The pads are designed to exert progressively increasing
forming pressures, directly proportional to the depth
of the punch penetration into the pad. |
|
Economical - Savings
of Die Alignment, shimming and other set-up times, combined
with the ability to form different types of bends with
the same bottom die, makes this an indispensable tool
for any Press Brake Fabricating Shop. |

| U-PADS
(PUDs) |
| Used
for One-Hit Radius Bends (with over-bends of up to 20°).
For harder metals, and
large radius bends, over-bends of more than 20° may be
necessary. In such applications, 3 or more hits will be necessary.

| LIMITATIONS |
|
Even
though these pads are designed to be versatile, they do
have limitations. Usages should be limited to the recommendations
in this brochure. Any usage beyond these recommendations
would be construed as misuse. |
|
Maximum
Depth of Punch Penetration = Half of Relief hole Diameter.
|
|
Maximum
Width of Punch Penetration should never exceed the relief
hole diameter. |

Advantages:
|
|
Unique
Design: No need for retainer; 60mm wide molded
tang, enable easy installation. |
|
Less
Tonnage: A molded hole through the full length
of the pad reduces the tonnage required to deflect the
pad. |
|
Versatility:
Sharp V-Bends or Radius V-Bends can be formed with the
same POD pad. Radius U-Bends can be formed
with PUD pads in 1 hit. |
|
Scratch-Free
Forming: Pre-polished, pre-painted or coated
metals can be formed without surface marks. |

| Limitations: |
Eventhough these

Usage should be limited to the recommendations. Any usage beyond
these would be construed as misuse.
Maximum Depth of punch penetration=Half of relief hole height.
Maximum width of punch penetration should never exceed the relief
hole width. |
