Punch and dimple die arbor kit works with expander to punch sheet metal

Huth Ben Pearson Intl. has introduced a new tooling kit that allows metal fabricators to use common punch and dimple dies with the company’s Mitey Mate Jr #1685S hand-held expander to become a shop air-powered sheet metal punch.

The H9000 punch and dimple die arbor kit comes with a 7/16-in. arbor, a ¾-in. arbor, a spacer flange, and a jam nut. The expander, designed for expanding and end forming tubing, comes with 1-1/2- to 3-in. expander tooling and a two-piece expander arbor.
