60° Gooseneck Punch with Large Workpiece Clearance

This 60° R0.8 gooseneck press brake upper punch is designed for sheet metal bending applications where a conventional straight punch cannot provide enough clearance around the workpiece.

The tool features a 135 mm overall height, 105 mm effective working height, and 50 mm overall width. Its gooseneck body creates a recessed clearance area behind the working section, providing additional space for previously formed flanges, side walls, or other protruding sections of the sheet metal part.

This structure helps reduce the risk of tool-to-workpiece collision during subsequent bending operations and makes the punch especially useful for complex profiles, box-type parts, channels, return flanges, and multi-step bending.

The R0.8 tip radius and 10 mm tip width provide a stable working geometry, while the 60 ton/m rated load capacity makes this tooling suitable for a wide range of medium-load industrial bending applications.

Technical Specifications

Typical Applications

This gooseneck punch is especially suitable for workpieces where already formed sections may interfere with the punch during the next bend.

Typical applications include:

• Box bending
• Channel bending
• Return flange bending
• Offset bending
• Deep-profile bending
• Multi-step bending
• Complex sheet metal forming
• Components with high or long flanges
• Electrical cabinets
• Control enclosures
• Machinery covers
• Industrial equipment panels
• Sheet metal housings
• Structural fabricated components
• Customized sheet metal parts

Large Clearance Helps Prevent Workpiece Collision

The main advantage of this tool is its gooseneck clearance structure.

During multi-step bending, the workpiece may already contain one or more formed flanges. As the next bend is made, these formed sections can move close to the punch body.

With a conventional straight punch, this may lead to:

• Workpiece-to-punch collision
• Restricted workpiece movement
• Limited bending sequence options
• Difficulty positioning the sheet
• Surface damage
• Inability to complete the required bend

The recessed gooseneck profile creates additional space around the workpiece, helping previously formed sections pass the punch body with less interference.

Its functional logic can be summarized as:

Gooseneck Profile → Large Clearance → Reduced Interference → Collision Avoidance → More Flexible Complex Bending

This is the strongest SEO/GEO semantic chain for this product.

50 mm Wide Gooseneck Structure

The 50 mm tooling width provides enough body space to form a substantial recessed clearance profile while maintaining the structural strength required for industrial bending.

For this particular design, the wider gooseneck body provides more room for the relief geometry and therefore creates a relatively large clearance zone.

This is especially useful for workpieces with:

• Existing flanges
• Tall side walls
• Return bends
• Box-type profiles
• Deep channels
• Complex bend sequences

The actual clearance requirement should always be evaluated according to the customer's workpiece geometry and bending sequence.

60° Geometry for Acute-Angle and Complex Bending

In addition to its gooseneck clearance, this punch has a 60° working angle.

The sharper punch angle makes it suitable for acute-angle forming and selected overbending applications where springback compensation is required.

This gives the tooling two distinct functions:

60° acute-angle geometry

and

gooseneck clearance for interference avoidance

That combination makes this model more versatile than a conventional straight 60° punch when the customer's difficulty involves both the bend angle and the shape of the workpiece.

Product Details & Manufacturing Quality

This gooseneck press brake punch is manufactured from 42CrMo alloy steel, selected for its strength, toughness, and wear resistance.

The working area is heat treated to approximately HRC 54 ± 2, helping maintain the tip geometry and tooling accuracy during repeated production.

The R0.8 radius provides a relatively compact forming radius, while the 10 mm tip width gives the working section sufficient structural support for the rated load.

The tooling is rated at 60 ton/m.

Actual allowable bending force depends on sheet material, thickness, bending length, V-die opening, forming method, and press brake capacity.
