Bead Die – 8600 Series – 8648 | 3 TOD

This Bead Die rolls a uniform retaining bead into 3″ (3.000″ decimal) tubing giving hose or sleeve connections a positive stop that resists blow-off under pressure. The bead profile is sized to match standard hose-clamp geometry, so parts come off the machine ready for assembly without secondary work. It is built for end finisher production where bead height and location need to stay consistent across large batches. It is part of the 8600 series; compatible with 8CP tube end forming machines, and is a good fit for shops standardizing their tube end finishing tooling.
