Cooling Water Mold Manifolds - Branching & Aggregating

These branching and aggregating cooling manifolds are used inside injection mold bases to split and re-combine coolant flow across multiple mold regions. In automotive connector molds, they help distribute coolant to densely cored areas, reducing temperature gradients that can affect knit lines and dimensional stability. The manifold’s multi-directional hole processing options (e.g., up/left/right face layouts) make it easier to align with existing drill patterns and flexible plumbing routing.

• Automotive connector molds: stable cooling across multiple cavities/cores to improve part-to-part consistency.
• Medical device housings: controlled thermal management supports tight tolerance molding where consistent shrink is critical.
• Thin-wall consumer components: efficient flow aggregation helps maintain uniform cooling and can support shorter cycle times.

The variant is suited for tooling where coolant must be routed through complex internal piping without sacrificing flow balance, enabling more stable process control during production.

The provided product data specifies manifold geometry and hole/tap configurations, but it does not include a steel grade, heat-treatment state, or hardness value. As a result, the material properties (e.g., wear resistance, corrosion resistance) and thermal processing (e.g., quenching & tempering, nitriding) cannot be stated from the available specifications.

For similar mold cooling manifold applications, engineers typically select steels based on required cleanliness and corrosion resistance, then apply heat treatment to balance toughness vs. hardness for long service life in circulating water environments.

• Data available: hole processing surface codes (A/AB/ABC/AC/B/BC/C/K/L) and hole/tapered screw selection ranges.
• Data missing: steel grade, HRC, and heat treatment (pre-hardened, quenched & tempered, nitrided, etc.).

If you share the manifold material/part number revision or a datasheet that includes steel and hardness, I can add an accurate material + heat-treatment section.

Select the manifold configuration by matching the hole layout and number of holes per plane to your mold’s internal cooling circuit design. The manifold supports hole processing surface options: A (1 face; up), AB (2 faces; up/left), ABC (3 faces; up/left/right), AC (2 faces; up/right), B, BC, C, and special forms such as K (through hole) and L (L-shaped hole).

• N (holes on one plane): choose 1, 2, 3, or 4 pieces to match the number of coolant branch connections required at that section of the cavity/core.
• G (tapered screw selection): select from 1=1/8 up to 12=1-1/2, with an indicated range of 1 ～ 12 (also shown as 1 ～ 6 for certain selections).
• R (tapered screw selection, fixed mapping): values map to 1=1/8, 2=1/4, 3=3/8, 4=1/2, 6=3/4 with an indicated 1 ～ 6 selection window.

When integrating into the mold, ensure the tapped/connection sizing (G/R selections) matches your hose/fitting or drilled passage sizes, and validate assembly clearances to maintain reliable coolant sealing. Because explicit dimensional ranges (e.g., outer diameter, length, port spacing) are not provided, confirm center distances against your cavity cooling layout before final procurement.
