IDM-C0024-B
Built for ultimate versatility and uncompromising edge retention, the IDM Cutting Die is a crucial asset for advanced material testing laboratories.
This die specialises in producing flawlessly clean dumbbell and strip specimens, entirely free of microscopic nicks that can prematurely compromise your stress-strain data.
Optimised to span across heavy vulcanized elastomers, rigid polyolefin piping, and thin polymer films, the die provides extensive coverage for the world’s most widely referenced testing criteria
Machined from high-carbon, wear-resistant tool steel, our cutting die delivers perfect cross-sectional consistency sample after sample, protecting the integrity of your laboratory's R&D and quality control pipelines.

We can also supply custom cutting dies on request. Simply send us the size and/or testing standard you are referring to and we will be happy to help.
Every cutting die is manufactured with extremely tight tolerances to ensure:
- Accurate sample dimensions
- Clean, burr-free cuts
- Consistent test results
- Reduced operator variation
This precision is critical for standards-based testing where even small sample inconsistencies can affect GSM, tensile, friction, bursting, or compression test results.
