1.Tungsten carbide punches outperform steel punches, lasting 12-15 times longer. This means you save money on not having to replace your punches as frequently.
2.he higher price of the carbide punches compared to steel punches is more than made up for due to superior performance. While carbide punches cost up to three times as much their longer life of 12-15 times longer make them a much better choice and Saving thousands of dollars in tooling.
3.Long lasting carbide punches also save you the labor costs of changing out your punches frequently. Plus every time a punch needs to be changed out, your machines aren’t running, hurting production.
4.When “high volume” and “high wear resistance” are key factors to your metal stamping success, you cannot go past our Tungsten Carbide Punches and Dies.
