Perishable Tooling for High-Volume, High-Reliability Production

Perishable tooling is one of the most important ways Diamond Die keeps manufacturers running. We engineer and manufacture high-precision replacement tooling designed for repeat use in demanding wire harness, cable assembly, and electrical termination environments, where consistency and uptime are non-negotiable.

Whether you’re supporting a high-volume harness program, maintaining legacy tooling, or replacing worn components across multiple lines, our perishable tooling is built to deliver the same quality crimp, cut, or form, part after part, run after run.

Built for
Repeatable Performance

Every tool is designed to maintain accuracy, alignment, and surface finish over its full-service life.

OEM-Level Precision

OEM-level tolerances or better

Advanced Machining

Precision grinding, EDM, and machining

Wear-Resistant Materials

Materials selected for wear resistance and stability

Predictable Replacement

Engineered for predictable replacement cycles

Turnaround Times That
Match Production Reality

When tooling wears out, you can’t wait months.

  • Typical lead times: 3–4 weeks
  • Rush options for a premium are available for critical situations
  • Stocking agreements for same-day / next-day shipment
  • Priority scheduling for repeat and perishable tooling programs

When Prints Don’t Exist,
We Reverse Engineer

Many customers rely on Diamond Die to replace tooling with no documentation.

  • Send us your worn or damaged tool
  • We reverse engineer, validate, and reproduce it
  • Legacy tools can be modernized or replicated to current standards

Ideal Applications

  • Wire harness manufacturing
  • Cable assembly
  • Electrical termination
  • OEM wire harness programs
  • High-volume repeat crimping or cutting operations

If you’re not sure exactly what you need, that’s okay. Share your current tooling, prints, or photos and our team will help you confirm the right replacement approach and turnaround based on your production requirements.
