Gibraltar SLS-108 Side Lock Mold Hardware M10-1.50

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR SLS-108 is a side lock component used in mold blank and punch die set assemblies. It provides secure lateral locking action within the mold structure, maintaining alignment and positional integrity during cycling. The SLS-108 features an M10-1.50 thread size and measures 3.54 inches in height, 3.94 inches in width, and 0.75 inches in length. Weighing 0.5 pounds, it is a compact, precision hardware piece suited for toolmakers, moldmakers, and die shop technicians working on production tooling installations or repairs.

The SLS-108 is designed for use in die cast mold and injection mold applications. It serves as a replacement or original-installation side lock in tooling assemblies where controlled lateral movement or positive locking between mold halves or side-action components is required. This part is sold individually and is appropriate for both original tooling builds and maintenance replacement scenarios in production shops.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified toolmakers or die shop technicians. Before servicing or replacing mold hardware, ensure all press or injection equipment is fully de-energized, depressurized, and locked out per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Use calibrated metric tooling to engage the M10-1.50 thread without cross-threading or overtightening. Verify proper seating and alignment of the side lock within the mold assembly before returning the tooling to production cycling.
