Gibraltar MEP1066-G Straight Ejector Pin 8.2mm 400mm Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR MEP1066-G is a straight ejector pin used in plastic 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 surface hardness and wear resistance, this pin measures 8.2 mm in diameter and 400 mm in overall length, with a 395 mm usable pin length. The 14 mm head diameter and 5 mm head height seat securely in the ejector plate. Toolmakers, mold setters, and moldmakers install this component during mold builds and scheduled maintenance.

This ejector pin is suited for injection mold and die-cast tooling applications requiring a straight-profile pin at 8.2 mm diameter. It is a direct replacement pin for standard ejector plate configurations in both prototype and production molds. The nitride surface treatment improves cycle life in high-volume molding environments. Typical installations occur in machine shops, tool rooms, and on the plant floor during mold repair or refurbishment work.

Key Features

• Straight ejector pin profile for standard mold ejector plate installations
• 8.2 mm pin diameter with 395 mm usable pin length
• 14 mm head diameter and 5 mm head height for positive plate retention
• Steel construction with nitride finish for surface hardness and extended wear life
• 400 mm overall length accommodates deep-draw mold configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement straight ejector pin for standard injection mold and die-cast tooling ejector plate assemblies requiring an 8.2 mm pin diameter and 400 mm overall length.

Installation Notes

Ejector pins are installed and replaced by qualified toolmakers or moldmakers with the mold fully de-energized, cooled, and secured in a press or on a work surface. Confirm bore diameter and ejector plate head pocket dimensions match the pin before installation. Inspect the ejector bore for wear or damage before fitting a replacement pin. Follow all applicable shop safety and lockout procedures when working on mold tooling.
