Gibraltar BE-1057 Die Mold Ejector Blade 0.062x0.172x10.5 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR BE-1057 is a die mold ejector blade designed for use in injection mold tooling applications. Ejector blades push molded parts clear of the mold cavity at the end of each cycle, making precise dimensional tolerances critical to reliable operation. This blade measures 0.062 inches thick and 0.172 inches wide, with a 10.5 inch length that suits a range of standard mold base configurations. It is installed and replaced by toolmakers, moldmakers, and maintenance technicians responsible for keeping injection mold tooling in production-ready condition.

Ejector blades are used in plastic injection molds where flat or thin-profile ejection is required and round ejector pins cannot provide adequate contact geometry. The BE-1057 is suited for residential and commercial tooling shops running thermoplastic injection molds that require a blade-style ejector in this specific size envelope. Its flat profile allows it to reach into narrow slots and thin-walled part geometries where conventional round pins would not function effectively.

Key Features

• Blade thickness of 0.062 inches for precise fit in standard blade pockets
• Blade width of 0.172 inches for narrow-profile ejection applications
• 10.5 inch length accommodates a variety of mold base heights
• Sold individually, allowing single-piece replacement without excess inventory
• Flat blade geometry suits thin-wall and slotted part ejection scenarios

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement ejector blade for injection mold tooling requiring a 0.062 inch thick by 0.172 inch wide blade pocket configuration.

Installation Notes

Ejector blades are installed and serviced by qualified moldmakers or toolroom technicians. Always ensure the mold is fully de-energized, cooled, and safely secured in a press or on a work surface before disassembling the ejector system. Verify blade pocket dimensions and blade fit before pressing the blade into service to prevent binding or premature wear. Follow the mold manufacturer's documented disassembly and reassembly procedures when servicing ejector components.
