Die Set Zones: A, B & C
in order to maintain an appropriate .125 wall thickness between die edges and die mounting holes all DBX Die Sets are separated into (3) Zones. (A, B & C).
The orange bands in the illustration on the right represent the .125 minimum wall. The gray shaded area is clearance for the die mounting screws. The area shown in white is available real estate for the die hole cavities.
The recommended minimum wall thickness of .125 should be maintained between the actual die hole caviities as well. RSF maintains these appropriate minimum wall thicknesses in the standard die sets shown below. RSF also recommends that customers maintain these wall thicknesses when making there own custom hole cavity die sets.
