Parting tool offers long grind life

Wilson Tool International® offers the Dura-Die parting tool. Its replaceable die inserts are made from the company’s Ultima tool steel, which offers high wear resistance for long grind life. The die base is made from shock-resistant steel, allowing it to withstand high punching force.

Fabricators can combine the parting tool with the manufacturer’s Dura-Blade product to help increase the life of the parting tool. When a new die is necessary, the removable insert can be replaced with minimal downtime, says the company.

The tool is available for standard parting in C, D, and E stations (close-to-clamp is available in D and E stations). It comes with positive and SlugHugger2 relief options.
