The D-M-E Gate-Mate™ Hot Sprue Bushing is designed for direct part gating in single-cavity molds, eliminating the conventional cold sprue. The unique design of the bushing provides minimal gate vestige, without the objectionable witness lines so commonly found on direct gated parts. The bushing transfers molten plastics from the machine nozzle to the mold cavity via a direct channel in the body. The plated copper alloy tip provides an improved temperature profile in the gate area. The D-M-E Gate-Mate™ Hot Sprue Bushing utilizes an advanced design square coil heater and independent thermocouple, strategically located for precise temperature control. The bushing is available in three sizes to suit a variety of applications.
