Across International Easy-Retrieve Dry Pressing Die Sets (Round & Square)
Revolutionary Trapezoidal Split Sleeve Technology
Across International Easy Retrieve die sets feature innovative trapezoidal split sleeve design professionally engineered to solve the persistent challenge of samples sticking to inner sleeve surfaces during pellet pressing operations. This comprehensive collection includes nine configurations: five round cylinder-shaped dies (6mm, 13mm, 25mm, 40mm, 50mm) and four square dies (6×6mm, 13×13mm, 25×25mm, 50×50mm), with maximum pressure capabilities ranging from 3 tons to 100 tons. The revolutionary trapezoidal inner sleeves combined with precision pellet ejectors make sample releasing effortless—transforming what is typically a frustrating, time-consuming process into a simple, reliable operation. Each die set includes three or four trapezoidal inner sleeves that create a tapered geometry, allowing pellets to release cleanly without binding or damage, particularly valuable when working with sticky, soft, or fibrous materials that traditionally adhere to conventional cylindrical sleeve walls. This advanced release mechanism significantly reduces sample loss, prevents pellet deformation during ejection, and dramatically improves workflow efficiency in high-throughput laboratory environments.
Premium Hardened Steel Construction with Precision Tolerances
All Easy Retrieve die sets achieve Rockwell Hardness Rc 62 through premium hardened steel construction, with smaller models utilizing W18Cr4V hardened carbon tool steel and larger models employing Cr12 hardened carbon mold steel for optimal durability under various pressure conditions. Pressing die tolerances are maintained at an exceptional 0.01-0.02mm (10-20 microns) across all configurations, ensuring consistent, reproducible pellet dimensions critical for spectroscopic analysis and material testing applications. The round die models accommodate samples up to 2/3 of sleeve height, while square models allow filling up to 1/3 of sleeve height—these limits are critical for proper pellet formation and safe operation. Each complete die set includes multiple highly polished core dies (two to four depending on model), outer sleeve with trapezoidal inner wall, three to four trapezoidal inner sleeves, support plate or base, push rods, pellet ejector, and assembly accessories. The innovative split-sleeve design maintains the precision and quality of traditional solid sleeves while dramatically improving sample retrieval, making these die sets ideal for XRF sample preparation, pharmaceutical testing, materials research, and any application where efficient, damage-free pellet removal is essential for productivity and sample integrity.

Safety and Maintenance
Critical Safety Requirements:
- Always wear protective goggles and safety gear during pressing operations.
- Round Dies: Never fill more than 2/3 of sleeve height.
- Square Dies: Never fill more than 1/3 of sleeve height.
- Never exceed specified maximum pressure for your die size.
- Ensure trapezoidal inner sleeves are properly assembled before pressing.
Maintenance Instructions:
- Clean die sets thoroughly with absolute ethyl alcohol after each use.
- Store in dry box with silica gel to prevent surface corrosion.
- Inspect trapezoidal inner sleeves regularly for wear or damage.
- Ensure all highly polished surfaces remain clean and scratch-free.
- Check that inner sleeve assembly rings function properly (square dies).
Important Notice: Across International is not responsible for any damage caused by misuse, overfilling beyond specified heights, or exceeding maximum pressure specifications.
