Quality chasers for Geometric Style Die Heads
How to order...

Quality chasers for Geometric style die heads are available in several configurations. The cutting edge grinds or hook angles vary depending upon the type of material that the chaser will cut. The chart below lists our recommendations for cutting various materials.

The standard chamfer angle is 33° on regular style chasers and 45° on projection style. This chamfer angle may be changed to suit the job, since tool life will be greatly enhanced by lengthening the chamfer and spreading the cutting load over a larger area of the chaser.
