Product Description
Introduction
Cross Inner Guide Post is a precision guiding component used in stamping dies, progressive dies, punch dies, and mold guiding systems. It is designed to provide accurate internal guidance for die plates and moving mold components, helping maintain stable alignment during repeated production cycles. The cross-style inner structure supports reliable positioning, reduces movement deviation, and improves overall tooling accuracy in precision manufacturing applications.
Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel such as SUJ2 or GCr15, the Cross Inner Guide Post is processed through CNC machining, heat treatment, precision grinding, and polishing. These processes help achieve high hardness, smooth surface finish, excellent dimensional accuracy, and strong wear resistance. The product page highlights that this type of guide post is available in standard specifications, with inventory supply and non-standard customization by drawing.
Cross Inner Guide Posts are widely used in metal stamping dies, precision punch tooling, automotive hardware molds, electronic component dies, industrial forming tools, and customized mold assemblies. They are suitable for applications requiring compact internal guidance, stable plate movement, and long-term tooling reliability. Standard sizes can support common die structures, while OEM and custom dimensions are available for specialized production needs.
