Will KAM Dies Fit my Press?

May 09, 2022

There are many presses out there that are made to look similar to our DK93 KAM press model.  But if they don't say KAM on them, then they are *not* KAM.

Generally speaking, our dies are molded to fit our KAM presses.  Below are the dimensions of our 3 models of dies, so you can compare them to your existing press to see if they might fit.  Compatibility is not guaranteed if our dies are used with presses or fasteners not sold on our site.  Please review our return policy.

 

Dimensions are approximate.

DK93 KAM Press:
Top die shank: approx 8mm (5/16") diameter (screws in - M8 threading)
Bottom die shank: approx 19mm (3/4") diameter
(Fits Emmaline Bags, Buckleguy, Wuxing, KST001, NXJ, QJ)

DK98 KAM Press:
Top die shank: approx 9mm (3/8") diameter (requires allen wrench)
