The L Short Die offers the same features of the L Die, using a
minimum-length die assembly for plastic materials. The short die
length allows fine particles in plastic materials to form more easily,
improving compaction and reducing required amperages for energy
savings. Front bridge replacement permits fast changes and
adjustments during operation.

Steele offers complete die solutions, including dies, bridges, coring,

column trimmers and lubrication systems for solids, pavers and
various coring patterns.
