Mate Slug Free® DieUsed For All StationsMate Slug Free® DieUsed For All Stations

Punch penetrates the material. Slug fractures away from sheet.

Punch retracts and slug is free to fall down and away through exit taper of the Slug Free die.

Material held securely by stripper before punch makes contact.

Pressure point constricts slug. Punch stroke bottoms out as slug squeezes past pressure point.
