Use your Bonny Doon hydraulic press or your rolling mill to emboss finely detailed patterns into your metal using this pattern plate. The plate is specially designed to produce a detailed, low-relief pattern on metal surfaces and is created from a special scale-free steel that is softer than the rollers on a rolling mill to ensure a long life of both the plate and rollers. It works on metal up to 16-ga. thick or as fine as 26-ga. (note that these are guidelines for what is possible with these plates; let your experience be your best guide). Instructions are included.
Important: Plates may be used in either your hydraulic press or your rolling mill. Once a plate is used in your rolling mill, however, it will begin to take on a curvature and should not be used in the hydraulic press. The same plate should never be used interchangeably between the mill and press. If you are using the plate in your rolling mill, we recommend annealing your metal before sending it through the rolling mill to achieve cleaner, crisper detail.
