Product Description
Introduction
Angle Guide Pin is a critical component used in injection molds to control the movement of sliding cores and side-action mechanisms. Installed at a specified angle within the mold structure, it converts the opening motion of the mold into lateral movement of the slide, enabling the release of undercuts and complex molded features. Accurate movement control is essential for maintaining product quality, reducing mechanical wear, and ensuring reliable mold performance throughout repeated production cycles.
Manufactured from premium bearing steel such as SUJ2 or GCr15, the Angle Guide Pin undergoes precision machining, heat treatment, grinding, and polishing processes to achieve excellent hardness, dimensional stability, and wear resistance. The precision-ground surface helps reduce friction between moving mold components while ensuring smooth and accurate slide movement. Its hardened construction provides long-term durability and dependable operation under high-volume injection molding conditions.
Angle Guide Pins are widely used in automotive plastic parts, consumer electronics housings, medical device components, packaging products, household appliances, and industrial injection molds. Available in various diameters, lengths, and angle configurations, they can be adapted to different slide-core designs and mold structures. Custom manufacturing services are available to meet specific application requirements, providing efficient motion control solutions for precision injection molding systems.
