Cold Heading Dies are essential tools in the metal forming process, especially for cold heading and stamping applications. They are widely used in automotive, electronics, and machinery manufacturing industries. By applying high pressure to shape metal materials into precise parts, Cold Heading Dies ensure outstanding durability, dimensional accuracy, and consistency. As a critical component of the cold heading process, these dies not only improve production efficiency but also help manufacturers reduce overall production costs.
High Precision Manufacturing for Consistent Forming
Our dies are produced using advanced CNC machining and wire cutting technologies, achieving micron-level tolerance control. This ensures product consistency and interchangeability, even in high-precision applications.
Premium Materials for Exceptional Durability
We use high-performance die steels such as SKD11, HSS, and Tungsten Carbide. The dies undergo vacuum heat treatment and surface nitriding, offering superior compressive strength and wear resistance—ensuring stable performance under high-frequency impact conditions.
Flexible Customization to Meet Diverse Needs
We support non-standard customization. Cold Heading Dies can be tailored to specific screw specifications, part geometries, and material requirements, ensuring compatibility with various heading equipment and forming processes.
Boost Productivity and Reduce Overall Costs
Optimized die structures improve metal flow and ease of release, reducing jamming and sticking. This shortens cycle times and helps manufacturers achieve high output with minimal waste.
Wide Application Across Multiple Industries
Ideal for producing bolts, nuts, pins, and non-standard fasteners, Cold Heading Dies are compatible with applications in automotive manufacturing, construction fasteners, electronic components, and hardware appliances.
Expertise in Die Manufacturing
With years of focus on cold heading die technology, our experienced engineering team and well-developed R&D system support one-stop solutions from design to production.
Strict Quality Control System
We ensure quality at every step—from raw material selection and process control to final inspection. All dies undergo rigorous testing and trial runs to guarantee reliable performance and consistent quality.
Advanced Equipment for Precision Manufacturing
Equipped with imported CNC machines, grinders, slow wire EDM, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM), we meet the highest industry standards for die accuracy.
