Gibraltar MT7696-G Straight Ejector Pin 5mm 500mm Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR MT7696-G is a straight ejector pin manufactured from steel with a nitride finish, designed for use in injection mold tooling and die applications. It features a 5 mm pin diameter, a 497 mm pin length, and a 500 mm overall length with a 10 mm head diameter and 3 mm head height. The nitride finish provides improved surface hardness and wear resistance, extending service life in high-cycle mold environments. This pin is installed and replaced by toolmakers, mold technicians, and precision machining professionals during mold maintenance or new tooling builds.

Straight ejector pins like the MT7696-G are used in plastic injection molds, die casting tooling, and stamping dies to push finished parts from the mold cavity after each cycle. This pin is suited for medium-bore ejector pin applications in both production and prototype tooling. It is a direct-fit replacement for worn or broken ejector pins of matching geometry in existing mold bases.

Key Features

• 5 mm pin diameter for precise bore fitment in standard ejector pin housings
• 500 mm overall length accommodates deep mold bases and extended ejector travel
• Nitride surface finish increases hardness and wear resistance for extended cycle life
• 10 mm head diameter and 3 mm head height conform to standard ejector plate counterbore dimensions
• Steel construction provides the strength and machinability required for mold tooling service
• Sold individually, allowing single-pin replacement without purchasing a full set

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement straight ejector pin for injection molds, die casting tooling, and stamping dies requiring a 5 mm diameter straight ejector pin with a 500 mm overall length and standard head geometry.

Installation Notes

Installation and replacement of ejector pins should be performed by qualified toolmakers or mold technicians with the mold fully de-energized, hydraulic press pressure relieved, and all moving platens locked out per facility lockout/tagout procedures. Verify pin bore diameter, ejector plate counterbore depth, and overall mold stack dimensions before installing to confirm fitment. Do not force-fit pins into undersized bores, as this can cause bore damage or pin failure during cycling. Consult the mold design drawings for proper ejector pin placement and retaining methods.
