V16 88° Single-V Press Brake Lower Die for Precision Sheet Metal Bending

This V16 press brake lower die is designed with a single-V structure for stable and accurate sheet metal bending.

The illustrated model features a 16 mm V-opening, 88° die angle, 90 mm overall height and 21 mm main body width, with a rated load capacity of 100 ton/m.

The V16 opening provides a practical lower-tool geometry for a wide range of general sheet metal bending applications, while the 88° V-groove offers additional flexibility for air bending operations where material springback needs to be considered.

Its single-V design provides a straightforward and rigid bending surface, making the tool suitable for repeated CNC press brake forming operations.

Flexible Effective Tool Height

The illustrated die has an overall height of 90 mm, while the effective working height can be adapted according to the customer's press brake configuration.

Typical options include:

70 mm, 75 mm or other customized effective heights.

This allows the lower die to be matched with different punch heights, tooling combinations, clamping systems and machine configurations.

V16 Single-V Die Geometry

The die combines a 16 mm V-opening with a 21 mm main body width, providing additional body support while maintaining a compact lower-tool profile.

The illustrated configuration includes:

• 16 mm V-opening
• 88° die angle
• 21 mm main body width
• 14 mm bottom mounting width
• Approx. R2 shoulder radius
• 100 ton/m load capacity

This geometry provides a reliable solution for precision air bending and general sheet metal fabrication within the specified load capacity.
