Kydex Thermoform Sheet + Kydex Holster Molding Press Bundle for DIY Holster Making

KYDEX Thermoform Sheets: These unblemished KYDEX V thermoform sheets come with a P1 textured finish and are cell/smooth texture premium sheets in V grade (regrind KYDEX). They are widely used for holster and sheath making and can also be used to create thermoform imprints of almost any surface or shape. This popular material is used by amateur and professional holster makers to create quality, professional grade KYDEX sheaths and holsters of almost any size and shape. KYDEX V thermoform plastic sheets are durable, as they don't shrink, lose color, or even lose shape.

Kydex Holster Molding Press: The CKK sheath/holster molding press is the industry standard in thermoplastic forming presses. Built from rugged ¼ inch steel plate with full black surface coating, this forming press is designed by experts for experts and will last a lifetime. Our professional forming system is perfect for making flat-faced (one-sided) or a full fold-over (wrapped style) sheaths and holsters, commonly used for securing knives, handguns, web-gear, flashlights, magazine clips, cell phones, and many other desired items. The 12-inch bench model press comes complete with pre-drilled footer holes to accommodate stable production mounting, and the top plate has a channel locking system to allow you to lock it down in place using the supplied retention chain, enabling you to walk away and do other processes while your heated KYDEX, HOLSTEX, or Boltaron sheet material is cooling into final form.

Included in Bundle: The bundle includes (20) Kydex V Thermoform Sheets - (P1 Texture) - (Black) - (0.080) - (12in x 12in), (1) #8 Handsetter, and (100) #8-9 Olive Drab Eyelets Combo Kit.

For DIY Thermoforming: Kydex V Thermoform Sheet is very similar to other thermoform sheet materials like Holstex and Boltaron in the way it forms when heated and molded around an object. Once cooled, this material will keep the shape of the item that was used to mold the shape into place. In its cooled state, it is very durable and lightweight, and it is used widely in thermoform holster making, cosplay costume creation, removable surface coverings, keel guard protectors, and much more.

P1 Texture: The texture applied to the surface of the Kydex V sheet is referred to as P1 "Hair Cell". This is a reference to the size and shape of the texture grain and is common on many Kydex items seen in the marketplace. P1 is the most common texture for holsters, sheaths, and other carry items, and the texture on Kydex V sheet is uniform across the surface of the material, producing a non-reflective, scratch-resistant finish.

Molding Press: The Kydex Molding Press is the industry standard in thermoplastic forming presses. Built from rugged 0.25-inch steel plate with a full black surface coating, this forming press will last a lifetime. It is perfect for making flat-faced or a full fold-over sheath and holster, used for securing knives, firearms, web-gear, flashlights, magazine clips, cell phones, and many other items. Using this tool, you can make wraparound sheaths/holsters with both pieces of foam.

How to Use: To use this tool, simply heat your thermoplastic material to 300-375 degrees (depending on heating time and oven used), cover or wrap your item with the heated material, and then place the wrapped item in the molding press and apply pressure (chain locking optional). Our molding press will do the work for you and quickly improve the quality of your sheaths and holsters.

Foam: This model of the Kydex Press uses Maxx Form for the center foam of the press. This molding foam has been specifically engineered for use in press molding sheet materials like Kydex, Holstex, and Boltaron, and it greatly minimizes memory artifacts due to its superior chemical formulation. This foam can also be used on both sides, unlike other products, making it the standard for thermoform molding applications.
