Steel Plate For Mold Base

 

Steel Plate For Mold Base

Steel for molds is a kind of structural rolled steel, mainly used for various heavy equipment and machinery products. These products are particularly important for machinability and abrasion resistance, which also determines the lifetime of machine products.


For example, installation of support pillars, guided ejector systems, eyebolt holes, rough blind pockets, and torch-cut through pockets can all be completed without delay. Here are some other advantages we offer:

  • Very large equipment for manufacturing large molds
  • High-performing Fortal® Aluminum mold bases with all the advantages and consistent material characteristics of steel bases, like exceptional machining and polishability – it’s another in-house material that enables us to offer fast modifications to standard bases
  • Standard and unique components for molds such as our Threadformer™ Unscrewing Device, EXAflow® Tunnel Gates, and Return-Rite™ mold springs.
  • Mold plate and components for those customers building their own mold bases.
  • We have rotary grinding up to 160″, surface grinding up to 80″, and machining capacity up to 180″
  • Not to mention, our expansive in-stock plate selection
