Abstract

A die pin retainer subassembly for use in a die assembly that slidably engages with a die punching machine comprises an elongated retainer, which includes at least one hole for receiving a die pin, and an elongated retaining bar disposed over the enlarged head of the die pin. At least one of the retainers on the retaining bar is in the form of a channel and the retainer and the retaining bar are sized and configured to nest along the lateral direction to minimize any relative lateral movement.
