Bolster extensions or Die Arms make it very easy and simple to pull out or push a die in. It also allows for a forklift or crane to remove and load dies easily. Die stoppers at the end of each Die Arm will prevent the die from rolling off but at the same time provide easy die loading onto the bolster extensions.

The Die Arms are equipped with hardened rollers to allow for a long service life and accurate die loading. The Die Arms can be selected according to carrying capacity, and are available in three different types: RC detachable type, RD drop-down type and RE/RF folding type.
