It provides secure mechanical interlocking between mold components, maintaining alignment and clamping force during die cast and injection mold operations. The TPL-327 features a 1\/4-20 thread size and compact dimensions of 1.38 inches height, 0.75 inches width, and 1.38 inches length. Weighing 0.5 pounds, it is suited for precision tooling environments where consistent part seating and repeatable locking are required. Tool and die makers, mold technicians, and toolroom machinists are the primary installers of this hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TPL-327 is designed for use in die cast mold and injection mold assemblies. It functions as a replacement or spare hardware component within mold base tooling systems. Typical applications include maintaining interlock integrity in production molds where taper lock mechanisms are specified by the mold design. The compact footprint makes it appropriate for installations where space within the mold base is constrained. This hardware suits both original equipment builds and retrofit or repair scenarios in toolroom and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper lock and interlock design for secure mold component alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 thread size for standard tooling fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1.38 x 0.75 x 1.38 inch profile fits tight mold base clearances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with die cast mold and injection mold assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single unit for targeted replacement or spare stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in die cast mold and injection mold assemblies requiring taper lock and interlock hardware with a 1\/4-20 thread specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified tool and die makers or mold technicians in a toolroom or production setting. The mold assembly should be fully depressurized, cooled, and de-energized before disassembling any mold components or replacing hardware. Standard toolroom hand tools appropriate for 1\/4-20 fasteners apply. Follow the mold design drawings and OEM specifications for proper seating depth and torque guidance specific to the mold base design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper Lock \/ Interlock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.38 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.38 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TPL-327\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691626463538,"sku":"TPL-327","price":125.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/496932a5b003ea5dfa8f0ea3eef8778e.jpg?v=1788287939","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-tpl-327-taper-lock-interlock-mold-hardware","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
