Silver Steel

For tool room and general engineering. Applications include screwdrivers, punches, shafts, axles, pinions, pins, die posts, instrument parts, model parts, taps and drills for mild steel, engraver tools. High carbon content means that it can be hardened to give high wear resistance and chromium content adds strength and hardness.

Indexa Die Springs

The heat and surface treatment plus the high quality of steel used in the manufacturing process ensure the springs will bear a high number of stresses without breaking or without appreciable loss of load. Every batch of springs is subject to a rigorous testing procedure to ensure that a consistent quality is maintained. Longer springs should be guided along their course.

Precision Ground Flat Stock (500mm)

The dimensional stability of ground flat stock combines with other useful characteristics including excellent resistance to cracking during heat treatment compared with other, more highly alloyed, cold work tools. Relatively soft and easy to machine. High wear resistance after heat treatment. Holds a good cutting edge. Suitable for EDM machining.
Typical applications: widely used in precision tools, machine knives, gauges, jigs, templates, punches, dies and machine parts.
The Cost Cutting Stock: extensive range of widths and thicknesses enables the selection of an appropriate size of ground flat stock to minimise material and machining costs.

Interchangeable Insert Centres

For greater flexibility. Bodies and points manufactured from hardened and ground high grade tool steel, for improved resistance to wear extending tool operating life. Precision manufactured bearings evenly distribute axial load for smooth operation, reducing friction and heat build up. The bearings are protected by seals to prevent dirt and coolant ingress. Modern bevel head design allows unhindered approach of toolholders and lathe tools to the workpiece.
