ULTRA-HOLDER™
A.I.S.I. 4340 Modified Pre-Hard 38/43 RcH
DSS #40U

ULTRA-HOLDER is a high strength holder material and should be used in conjunction with high hard insert materials, where longer die life and lower maintenance costs are needed.  The uniform structure and alloy content makes it suited to withstanding high service loading and reduces coining on the parting line.  When using ULTRA-HOLDER in large holder block applications, the center hardness is consistently higher than that of standard holder material.
