90° R1 Clearance Press Brake Upper Tool – 116 mm, 6 mm Tip

The WYS 90° R1 clearance press brake upper tool is a specialized upper punch designed for sheet metal bending applications where additional workpiece clearance is required. Featuring a 90° punch angle, R1 mm tip radius, 116 mm overall height, 27 mm total tool width, and 6 mm tip width, this upper tool provides a practical solution for general and specialized sheet metal bending applications.

A key feature of this punch is the relief space on both the front and rear sides of the tool. This bilateral clearance design provides additional space around the workpiece during the bending process, helping to reduce interference and prevent collisions between the punch and the formed product. It is particularly useful when bending components with flanges, formed sections, or geometries that require additional clearance around the upper tool.

Manufactured from 42CrMo alloy steel and precision-machined for dimensional consistency, the tool is hardened to HRC 54 ± 2 to provide excellent strength, wear resistance, and long service life. With a maximum load capacity of 50 ton/m, this upper punch is suitable for general and medium-duty bending applications when used within the appropriate machine and tooling configuration.

Product Details & Manufacturing Quality

Each WYS clearance press brake upper tool is manufactured with controlled dimensions and precision-machined working surfaces to ensure reliable tooling performance and consistent bending accuracy.

The most distinctive feature of this upper punch is its front-and-rear relief design. Clearance spaces are incorporated on both sides of the tool, creating additional room for the workpiece during the bending operation. This design helps reduce contact between the punch body and the formed part, particularly when the workpiece has flanges, raised sections, or other geometries that could interfere with a conventional upper tool.

The bilateral clearance structure can help reduce tool-to-workpiece collision and interference, allowing the punch to work more effectively in applications where the formed component requires additional space around the tooling.

The use of 42CrMo alloy steel combined with HRC 54 ± 2 hardness provides an excellent balance of strength, wear resistance, and service life. The R1 mm tip radius and 6 mm tip width provide a practical working geometry for general bending applications and parts requiring a relatively small inside bend radius.

With a 50 ton/m maximum load capacity, this upper punch is suitable for general and medium-duty bending operations when used within the specified machine and tooling capacity.

Standard & Custom Press Brake Tooling

In addition to standard press brake punches, WYS Machinery manufactures custom press brake tooling according to customer drawings, samples, machine specifications, or specific bending requirements.

Customized options may include different punch angles, tip widths, tip radii, clearance profiles, relief dimensions, overall heights, tool widths, lengths, shank configurations, and special tooling geometries. OEM-compatible tooling solutions are also available for specific press brake machines and tooling systems.

Whether you require a standard upper punch for general sheet metal bending or a specialized clearance tool designed to minimize workpiece interference, WYS Machinery can provide precision press brake tooling tailored to your machine and production requirements.
