Clearance size on die for Ticona Hostaform C 27021 AST Acetal Copolyme

[Finglas]

I'm designing a press tool for removing material from a moulded part made from Ticona Hostaform C 27021 AST Acetal Copolymer. Can anyone recommend a website where I can find die clearance sizes for pressing through this type of material or for acetal in general?

Ticona provide the very best technical info on their site.

I'm curious, is this for flash removal or to actually add a secondary feature into the part? What kind of sectional thickness are you punching (or shearing) through?

A secondary feature to remove material and insert ligth bars.
