High-Speed Steel Ejector Pins
PCS Company’s new M-2 ejector pins use steel with high carbon content for greater wear resistance.
PCS Company’s new M-2 Ejector Pins are made of high-speed steel, which gives them higher wear resistance and better machineability. Pin diameters range from 1/32 through 1/4 in. with lengths of 6 and 10 in. PCS says the pins’ diameters are precisely ground to provide dimensional stability and superior surface finish quality for ejected parts.
PCS says the M-2 ejector pins target customers who, increasingly, require the pins’ unique specifications for their particular molding applications and tool designs. Additional features of the M-2 ejector pins include through hardening of 60 to 63 Rockwell C, and diameter tolerances held within 0.0003 in. PCS says the pins eliminate chipping from form work and can be used as an ejector pin or a core pin.
