Abstract
A die is disclosed for applying radial force to an eccentric workpiece. The die includes a set of faces that are each inclined from an orthogonal relationship with a different radial plane of the workpiece by an offset angle. The die also includes wedges that are positioned on the faces. They each have a jaw surface and a slide surface that are inclined from a parallel relationship with each other by a wedge angle that equals the offset angle of their respective face. The wedges can move over the faces to abut the workpiece along each of a plurality of transverse planes. In each of these planes, their movement can accommodate the workpiece's eccentricity in that plane. In addition, each jaw surface abuts the workpiece in a tangential relationship.
