Accu-Square Tool Steel

Accu-Square, presquared tool steel from Diehl Steel saves tool, die and mold makers time by reducing or eliminating the need for further squaring of the blocks. It comes presquared on all six sides to a tolerance range of the customer's choosing. Accu-Square is designed to help companies save time and cut costs.

"While my peers didn't believe it, the cost of having Diehl do the squaring for me was less than doing it in-house," says Ken Seilkop, CEO of A-G Tool and Die's parent company, Seilkop Industries Inc., a long time user of Accu-Square.

Diehl offers tool steel, alloy steel, high speed steel, carbon steel, powder metal products, stainless steel and aluminum block to tool and die makers. The company offers an extensive inventory and in-stock items are typically shipped in 48 to 72 hours.
