Steel Rule Dies

Tooling For Manufacturing Gaskets, Seals & More

Terrene, Inc. makes custom steel rule dies with laser cut precision. With the assistance of CNC rule bending machines, our experienced personnel will assemble your dies quickly and accurately every time. Die boards can be made from Baltic birch or high-impact polymer. Driven by your specifications, we can assemble your dies with a wide combination of punches, rule, and additional hardware.

If registration is important for your die cutting applications, we have developed the RegiClear™ steel rule die. Using transparent, high-impact polymer die boards, the RegiClear™ die makes it easier for the die press operator to align the die quickly and accurately to the material they are cutting. This allows for significantly faster cycle times and superior yields. These two factors will dramatically save you in labor and material costs. Additionally, the high-impact polymer we use has a reduced impact on the environment when compared to the polycarbonate die boards most manufacturers use.

We provide you with features and services such as:

  • Custom Die Assembly – We build dies with punches, cutting rule, perforated rule, scoring rule, and custom hardware per your specifications.
  • Efficient Material Ejection – Rubber ejection strips ensure smooth part removal and prevent material buildup.
  • Blister Packaging Compatible Dies – Our precision dies can be designed to support blister packaging and pre-thermoformed materials.
  • Reverse Engineering Available – Provide a flat pattern part, and we’ll create the exact steel rule die required for die cutting.
  • Die Refurbishment & Re-Ruling – We repair and re-rule both our own dies and those from competitors, extending tool life and performance.

Used to produce parts quickly and efficiently, steel rule dies cut a wide array of soft material; from foams and rubber to thin plastics and fabrics. Commercial industries using our services include medical, electronics, aerospace, textiles, automotive, sporting goods, printing, packaging, and many more. Gaskets, seals, filters, pads, and shields are just a few of the applications for our dies.

Since Terrene, Inc. was founded in 2001, we have been providing flexible solutions for your manufacturing needs. Whether you are located in the Greater Seattle area or elsewhere in the nation, we will deliver custom steel rule dies of the highest quality in a timely manner. Contact us today.
