Gibraltar MEP1024-G Straight Ejector Pin 3.70mm 250mm Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR MEP1024-G is a straight ejector pin used in injection mold tooling to push finished parts out of the mold cavity at the end of each cycle. Machined from steel with a nitride finish for wear and corrosion resistance, this pin measures 3.70 mm in diameter with an overall length of 250 mm and a usable pin length of 247 mm. The head is 7 mm in diameter and 3 mm tall, providing a positive seating surface against the ejector plate. Tool and die makers, mold builders, and mold maintenance technicians install and replace these pins during mold builds and preventive maintenance cycles.

Straight ejector pins like the MEP1024-G are used in plastic injection molds, die casting dies, and rubber molds across both production tooling and prototype applications. They are typically seated in ejector retainer plates and guided through support plates and cavity blocks. This specific diameter and length combination suits a wide range of small-to-mid-size mold configurations where precise, consistent ejection is required to avoid part damage or flash.

Key Features

• Steel construction with nitride finish for improved surface hardness and corrosion resistance
• 3.70 mm pin diameter for tight-tolerance ejector bore fitment
• 250 mm overall length with 247 mm active pin length
• 7 mm head diameter and 3 mm head height for secure retention in ejector plates
• Straight pin geometry for straightforward installation and replacement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard straight ejector pin for use in injection molds, die casting dies, and similar tooling applications requiring a 3.70 mm diameter ejector pin with a 250 mm overall length.

Installation Notes

Ejector pin replacement is performed by licensed tool and die technicians or experienced mold maintenance personnel. The mold must be fully de-energized, hydraulic or pneumatic ejection systems must be relieved of pressure, and the mold should be cooled to a safe handling temperature before disassembly. Verify bore diameter and ejector plate pocket dimensions against pin specifications before installation to ensure proper fit and avoid premature wear or pin breakage.
