Brass Baffle Blade Stock (Inch)

This solid-brass baffle blade stock is used inside injection mold cooling channels to split a single machined waterline into multiple parallel flow paths. By creating controlled channel separation, it helps reduce coolant bypass and improves local temperature uniformity around critical features.

• Automotive connector and housing molds: Install between drilled or machined waterlines to refine cooling distribution near thick-to-thin transitions, supporting stable cycle times and part-to-part consistency.
• Precision electronics enclosures: Use as a divider in baffle board or interior cooling assemblies where consistent hydraulic resistance is needed to maintain even cavity wall temperatures.
• Medical device housings: Favor this variant when predictable heat transfer through brass is required to minimize temperature gradients that can affect dimensional stability.

The solid-brass construction is well suited for these scenarios because it supports dependable thermal conduction and integrates cleanly with PCS straight and spiral baffle systems for consistent assembly fit.

This product is made from solid brass blade stock, selected for its strong thermal conductivity and machinability for interior mold cooling components. Brass is typically used in mold water-circuit baffles where efficient heat transfer at moderate temperatures supports stable cavity temperature control.

• Heat treatment: This type of brass baffle stock is generally supplied in a ready-to-machine condition; it does not require quench-and-temper cycles like tool steels.
• Hardness & wear: Brass provides adequate surface durability for coolant-contact duty, but it is not as wear- or impact-resistant as hardened alloy tool steels; it trades lower hardness for excellent thermal performance.
• Manufacturing: Supplied as solid plate/blade stock and then machined to match waterline geometry and thread interfaces.

If your application prioritizes abrasion resistance, hardened steel baffles may be considered, but for coolant distribution and heat transfer, brass is often the practical choice.

To select the correct size, match the product’s pipe thread interface to your mold’s cooling connection points. The specified pipe thread ranges are 1"–11 1/2" and 3/4"–14, which should correspond to the threaded ports or fittings in your waterline manifold or baffle assembly layout.

• Match to cavity/core requirements: Ensure the baffle blade geometry (channel divider role) aligns with the drilled or machined waterline paths so coolant splits into the intended multiple channels without gaps or misalignment.
• Thread fit: Verify thread type and mating components (the provided spec is in terms of pipe thread size/range). Confirm the connection uses compatible threading so sealing and flow performance are maintained.
• Tolerance considerations: Because this is an internal cooling divider, plan for clean assembly fit to prevent bypass leakage between channels.

If you are integrating with existing PCS straight or spiral baffles, keep the thread interface consistent across the assembly to maintain alignment and predictable coolant distribution.
