Plastic Extrusion Die Cost in Pakistan

A custom extrusion die typically costs between PKR 50,000 and PKR 500,000, depending on the complexity of the profile, its size, wall thickness, and the number of cavities. This is a one-time tooling cost. Once the die is made and approved, you only pay for the plastic produced on every order after that. Contact us with your drawing or sample for an exact quote.

Most dies take two to four weeks from design approval to first trial run. Complex profiles or dies requiring additional polishing may take longer. We produce and check trial samples before moving to bulk production.

Yes. High-chrome polishing is included as standard on all our extrusion dies and injection moulds, at no extra charge. It gives the tooling a hard, corrosion-resistant surface and helps produce a smoother, more consistent finish on the extruded profile.

Die cost depends mainly on the complexity of the profile cross-section, its overall size, wall thickness and tolerance requirements, and the number of cavities needed. Simple solid strips cost less than multi-chamber hollow profiles or sealing profiles with fine lips.

Yes. The die is made once and then kept at our factory for all future production of that profile. You pay the die cost once, then only pay the per-metre production price on every order after that, including repeat orders placed months or years later.

Both are one-time tooling costs in a similar range, typically PKR 50,000 to PKR 500,000 depending on complexity. An extrusion die shapes a continuous profile as it is pushed through, while an injection mould forms an individual three-dimensional part, which is why mould development generally takes longer, three to eight weeks against two to four weeks for a die. Which one you need depends on whether your product is a continuous profile or a discrete shaped part.

No. Once your die is made and approved, it stays at our factory. Repeat orders of the same profile use the existing die, so you only pay the per-metre production cost, not the tooling cost again.

We machine dies from premium-grade tool steel, most commonly P20, H13, or D2, selected to match your specific profile, the material being extruded, and the tolerance and surface finish required. We work with whichever grade best fits the job rather than one steel for every order.

Die life depends mainly on the steel grade, heat treatment, and surface finish, with maintenance as the single biggest factor within our control. We use premium tool steel combined with high-chrome polishing as standard on every die, which significantly extends its working life, especially when running abrasive or glass-filled compounds. Because the die is kept at our factory, it goes straight back into production on every repeat order, months or years after it was first made.

You do. Once the die, or injection mould, is paid for, it belongs to you. We keep it at our factory for your future production runs, but it is your tooling.
