Gibraltar BE-1026 Die Mold Ejector Blade

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR BE-1026 is a die mold ejector blade designed for use in injection mold tooling and die casting applications. Ejector blades serve a critical function in the mold cycle: they push formed parts out of the mold cavity without damaging part geometry or mold surfaces. This blade measures 0.032 inches thick and 0.172 inches wide, with an overall height of 7.5 inches, making it suited for applications where narrow, flat ejector profiles are required. Mold makers and tooling technicians are the primary installers of this component.

This ejector blade is intended for use in precision mold tooling where flat, blade-style ejectors are specified over round ejector pins. The narrow width and thin cross-section make it appropriate for ejecting parts with slots, ribs, or other recessed features that round pins cannot properly support. It is sold individually and is a direct replacement part for worn or damaged ejector blades in existing mold sets.

Key Features

• Blade thickness of 0.032 inches suits tight-tolerance mold ejector slots
• Blade width of 0.172 inches provides a flat ejection profile for ribbed or slotted part geometries
• Overall height of 7.5 inches accommodates standard mold base ejector plate travel
• Sold as a single unit, allowing replacement of individual worn blades without purchasing a full set

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement ejector blade for die mold and injection mold tooling sets requiring a 0.032-inch-thick by 0.172-inch-wide flat blade profile.

Installation Notes

Ejector blades are installed and replaced by mold makers or tooling technicians during mold maintenance or rebuild. Always de-energize and fully lock out the molding machine and allow all mold components to reach a safe handling temperature before removing or installing ejector components. Blades must be seated fully and flush in the ejector plate to prevent binding or breakage during the ejection stroke. Verify blade fit and clearance in the mold before returning the tool to production.
