Guide Retainer Sets

DADCO’s Guide Retainer Sets (GRS) reduce die construction by replacing common pins, bushing and spools. This product line features a robust design using a one-piece housing with top and bottom wipers, precision fit retainer housing, composite bushings and two retainer mount options. Attachment holes at the top of the guide rod accommodate long fasteners for increased thread engagement and enhanced impact resistance.
