Description
We will make a custom low profile die sets to your specifications. Choose your inner diameter (ID) and Outer diameter of your ring pellet, as well as the sleeve height and material. We will make the other parts to match.
All our low profile die sets are custom as we rarely make the same OD and ID combination twice. The die set works very much like our typical pellet press dies, with the addition of a central pin which creates a ring shaped cavity. The central pin fits inside the base plate and the spacers and plunger have holes in to accommodate the central pin. During pressing there is no direct pressing of the central pin so it remains a bystander during use. At the end, the base plate is removed and we include a specially made custom ejection pin for removal of the central pin. Once removed the ring shaped pellet can be removed as with our typical sets.

The largest low profile diameter we supply 15 mm. The outer diameter will be 25-30 mm depending on ID size. The pressing height in the die sleeve is 8 mm. Overall assembled height is 27 mm. is If you require a larger inner diameter we recommend you purchase our cylindrical die sets.
Low profile die sets are made out of stainless steel.
If you want to add on to your design (eg: an additional plunger, adding holes for thermocouples, larger OD required) there will be an additional cost sent to you for payment before we can manufacture.

ID<10 mm, OD = 25 mm
