Gibraltar BE-1004 Die Mold Ejector Blade

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR BE-1004 is a die mold ejector blade designed for use in injection mold tooling applications. This blade provides a flat, precision-ground ejection surface that pushes molded parts clear of the mold cavity at the end of each cycle. With a blade thickness of 0.024 inches and a blade width of 0.100 inches, the BE-1004 fits tight-clearance ejector slots where round ejector pins cannot be used. Mold makers and toolroom machinists install this component as part of the ejector plate assembly in plastic injection molds. The blade is sized for single-unit replacement work and direct integration into existing ejector systems.

The BE-1004 is suited for plastic injection mold tooling in both prototype and production environments. Its narrow, flat geometry makes it the correct choice for ejecting parts with thin walls, ribs, or elongated features that require a blade-style ejector rather than a round pin. This part is installed during mold build or maintenance by mold makers, toolroom technicians, or die maintenance personnel working on injection mold bases.

Key Features

• Blade thickness of 0.024 inches for precise fit in narrow ejector slots
• Blade width of 0.100 inches suitable for thin-wall and ribbed part ejection
• Overall height of 6.5 inches provides standard ejector stroke clearance
• Flat blade profile allows ejection in locations where round pins cannot seat
• Single-unit packaging supports direct replacement without overstocking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement ejector blade for standard injection mold ejector plate assemblies requiring a 0.024 inch thick by 0.100 inch wide blade profile.

Installation Notes

Ejector blades are installed by qualified mold makers or toolroom machinists during mold assembly or scheduled maintenance. The mold must be fully powered down, press pressure relieved, and the ejector plate safely supported before removing or installing ejector components. Blade slots should be measured and verified against blade dimensions before installation to confirm proper fit and clearance. Consult the mold base manufacturer specifications and applicable shop safety procedures when servicing ejector systems.
