1-5/8" Dimple Die Punch and Flare Set - Woodward Fab

The Woodward Fab PF4G 1-5/8" Dimple Die Punch and Flare Set is engineered for professional fabrication tasks, enabling technicians to create reinforced holes in sheet metal. This draw stud style tool provides a clean punch and a uniform flare, enhancing panel rigidity and stiffness without requiring a hydraulic press. It is an essential addition for automotive and industrial professionals focused on structural integrity and weight optimization in their projects.

Key Features

• Integrated Punch and Flare Design: Simultaneously punches a clean hole and forms a uniform 1-5/8" dimple flare in one operation.
• Draw Stud Operation: Utilizes a robust draw stud and bolt system, allowing for use with common wrenches without the need for a separate press.
• Enhanced Panel Rigidity: Introduces a structural flare around the hole, significantly increasing the strength and stiffness of sheet metal panels.
• Durable Construction: Manufactured from heat-treated steel to ensure longevity and consistent performance in demanding workshop environments.
• Versatile Material Compatibility: Capable of working with mild steel up to 1/16" (16 gauge) and aluminum up to 14 gauge.

Applications

This dimple die punch and flare set is ideal for professional mechanics and fabricators involved in custom chassis work, roll cage construction, interior panel reinforcement, and motorsport applications where weight reduction and structural integrity are critical. It allows for the creation of lightweight yet strong components in automotive, aerospace, and industrial sheet metal projects, improving both aesthetics and performance.
