If you need a retainer block to house multiple punches and Die buttons, our Multi-Position Retainers can do the job. Provide us with the locations and hole types wanted and Dayton will manufacture the retainer you need.

Do you need to manufacture various hole patterns? Try our Change Retainers. With a retractable feature that allows the punch to retract up far enough to avoid contact with the material, you can now change hole patterns in a matter of minutes, and sometimes, even seconds.
