This part was stamped using a 3-station progressive GRIPflow® Tool.
The material is a low carbon hot rolled steel (SAE 1008/1010).
Section “A” required minimum die-roll and we were able to eliminate
approximately 95% of the die-roll. The material thickness is 0.315” while
the two small holes are 0.215 +/- 0.002” (68% of the material thickness).
All three holes were pierced in the GRIPflow® die.

The part is used in a “switching mechanism” assembly within the
Electrical Industry.

GRIPflow® was an economical alternate to milling the area around
Section “A” and drilling the three holes.
