Test sample preparation tools are used for cutting specimens to the exact dimensions described in an ASTM standard or other defined specification. Specimen cutting dies can be used with a toggle press or a mallet handle. We offer dies for almost every ASTM, ISO, DIN, and JIS standard.  Please specify the ASTM and the specimen type if you’d like to order specimen-cutting dies.

See our Specimen Cutting Die Catalog to learn more about sample preparation tools.
