What are dimple dies?

 

[billy138]

they're dies for pressing dimples into holes made in plate steel or sheet metal. mostly used by offroad racing fabricators, but also used by race car, and rock crawling fabricators. the hole creates less weight, while the dimple adds another dimension to the metal, increasing it's strength. i'll get some pics up on here as soon as my computer decides it wants to connect to my camera.

jeabus that is cheap, got a pic of the dies by chance?

 

[billy138]

my computer wont connect to my camera right now. until sunday it never had a problem. so sorry, no pics yet but i'll get on it asap. they look really nice, quality machining for sure. the ones you dont use much would look great as a paper weight on your desk. still an expensive paper weight though.

edit- and i'm willing to sell them individually now too. prices to come soon, although you'll still get a better deal when you buy 3 or more.

I'm in for a set, but I have to figure out which set I want

BTW, do these require a press or does a piece of all thread work as well?

 

[billy138]

i wish they had center holes for a bolt but they dont. the only die that has a hole (and grade 8 bolt included) is the dzus die. everything else will require a shop press. i'm trying to get pics up, but i cant afford to fix my computer right now, usb issues.
i have these ready to ship, so let me know whenever you're ready. thanks for the interest.

bummer.

THe dimensions you list are for the through hole right? MEaning the hole you have to drill in the metal to dimple?
