The female half looks like JK rear spring rubbers!
I've made dies for doing precise dimples in aluminum sheet, these are a good deal!

They are a tool steel, CNC machined in house, heat treated, and coated.
More sizes are coming. They are going to give a deal on the next 2 bigger sizes to people who have ordered the small set.
I didn't mention the sizes..... 1/2" 1" 1.5"
They have a nice wide base, so your material stays flat. (The downfall of the trailerball, it bends the shit out of your steel.)
See how flat the parts lay? That's nice.

The 2" and 2.5" showed up yesterday, on time and a nice little discount for buying the 3 set. Some heavy! And they remembered my igloo request from the last order, and one upped with a snowman! lol I'll try them out later this week, got the damn flu right now.

Supposed to be 1/8", but TMR just posted a pic on Pirate4x4 of 3/16", since a lot of people were asking.
Using thick stuff defeats their purpose, but still looks cool.

I was thinking on skid plates it may save some weight by being able to cut holes and strengthening them with dimples. maybe like a flat belly tj skid....
