Precision Multi-Cavity Injection Mold Core Insert Block
- Material: STAVAX S136 / 718H Pre-hardened Mold Steel
- Hardness: HRC 28–36
- Tolerance: ±0.0025 mm
- Surface Finish: Fine Matte EDM Textured
High-Precision Complex Core Engineering
Multi-layer stepped stacked core design precisely replicates complex stepped plastic part geometry, with integrated side slide locking grooves for side action mold structure matching. Distributed cooling through holes realize uniform heat transfer across all stepped core surfaces, effectively reducing part shrinkage, warpage and internal bubbles during injection cycles. Assembly bolt holes and positioning bores are machined with ultra-tight positional tolerance to guarantee zero offset during repeated mold opening and clamping.
Solid monolithic thick base structure delivers high rigidity against high injection clamping pressure, maintaining stable dimensional accuracy of finished plastic products over millions of molding shots.
Wear & Corrosion Resistant Mold Steel Construction
Premium mold steel material delivers comprehensive performance advantages for long-run injection molding cores:
- S136 stainless mold steel variant features excellent rust resistance, suitable for corrosive plastic raw materials (PVC, PA+GF)
- Balanced hardness and toughness to resist abrasion from glass fiber reinforced plastic materials
- Superior EDM texture & polishing performance, supports customized matte or glossy part surface requirements
- Stable thermal conductivity for consistent mold temperature control, shortening molding cycle time
- Compatible with post surface treatments: gas nitriding, PVD hard coating, texture etching to extend service life Ideal for medium-to-high volume production of complex structural plastic housings, automotive structural parts and electronic precision components.
Custom Mold Engineering Support
