Gibraltar EY6448-G Die Mold Ejector Sleeve Nitride Die Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR EY6448-G is a nitride coated die steel ejector sleeve designed for use in die mold tooling applications. It features a 7/32 inch inside diameter and an 11/32 inch outside diameter, with an overall length of 8 inches and a pin length of 248 millimeters. The 45-degree chamfer angle on the sleeve aids controlled insertion and alignment during mold assembly. Weighing 0.19 pounds, this sleeve is a compact yet durable component suited for precision tooling environments. Toolmakers, mold technicians, and die maintenance professionals are the primary installers of this component.

This ejector sleeve is intended for use in die mold assemblies where controlled ejection of molded parts is required. It fits into standard ejector sleeve configurations in injection molds and die casting tooling. The nitride coating on the die steel body improves surface hardness and wear resistance, making it a suitable choice for higher-cycle production tooling. This component is sold individually and is appropriate for both new tooling builds and maintenance replacement applications in industrial mold shops.

Key Features

• Nitride coated die steel body for improved surface hardness and wear resistance
• 7/32 inch inside diameter with 11/32 inch outside diameter for precision fit
• 8 inch overall length with 248 millimeter pin length
• 45-degree chamfer angle for guided insertion and alignment
• Lightweight at 0.19 pounds, minimizing added mass in ejector assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for standard die mold ejector sleeve configurations in injection mold and die casting tooling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by toolmakers or mold maintenance technicians in a controlled shop environment. Ensure the mold is fully de-energized, depressurized, and cooled before disassembling the ejector assembly. Use appropriate press equipment or hand tools to seat the sleeve without impact damage to the nitride coating. Verify inside and outside diameter clearances against mold plate tolerances before final assembly.
