Product Features
Easy Set-Up & Maintenance. No Tools Required!
Ultra® QCT™ is designed to minimize efforts and maximize uptime. There are no tools to use, break or lose to change the punch insert. Simply flip the durable latch to remove and snap the new insert into place. It’s really that easy!
Maintenance is a breeze, too. Use compressed air to clean away any debris without damage.
Longer Lasting, Superior Insert Performance
Ultra® QCT™ punch inserts are made from Mate’s proprietary M4PM™ steel, the longest lasting tool steel in the industry. At .770(19,56), the SBR is longer than our standard length punches, for more grind life. The punch is keyed at the perimeter providing better angularity control. Since the punch insert OD interfaces with the guide ID, punch guiding is superior, too.
Robust Construction
The punch driver is made from high speed steel and comes standard with Mate’s proprietary next generation SuperMax™ coating for extended life. To ensure durability, Ultra® QCT™ has undergone extensive product testing in customer locations.
Simple
With Ultra® QCT™ Mate and Thick Turret QCT Metric ™, Mate has simplified your tooling storage needs. Punch inserts take up less space than standard punches and waste less material. Ultra QCT requires only one punch driver is required for rounds or shapes, and works with all existing UltraTEC®, Ultra XT™ and Ultra® Fully Guided guides and canisters. There’s no need to purchase a special or captive system.
