Gibraltar MEP1016-G Straight Ejector Pin 2.7mm 160mm Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR MEP1016-G is a straight ejector pin designed for use in injection mold tooling and die casting applications. It functions as a component of the ejector system, pushing finished parts out of the mold cavity after each cycle. The pin features a 2.7 mm pin diameter and a 160 mm overall length, with a nitride finish applied to the steel body for improved surface hardness and wear resistance. This type of pin is installed and maintained by toolmakers, moldmakers, and die maintenance technicians working in production or repair environments.

This ejector pin is suited for use in plastic injection molds and similar tooling where precise, repeatable part ejection is required. The 5 mm head diameter and 2 mm head height seat the pin securely within the ejector plate assembly. The nitride finish helps resist galling and extends service life in high-cycle mold environments. It is appropriate for both new mold builds and replacement during routine tooling maintenance.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for injection mold ejector plate assemblies requiring a straight ejector pin with a 2.7 mm pin diameter and 160 mm overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified toolmakers or mold maintenance technicians. Before servicing the ejector system, ensure the mold is removed from the press and all hydraulic or pneumatic ejector pressure is fully relieved. Pins should be measured and inspected for proper fit within the ejector plate bore before installation. Do not force pins into undersized or misaligned bores, as this can cause premature wear or pin breakage.
