Tension Links Two Configurable Oval Hole Length in 5 mm Increments

Tension link components like this are used in injection mold stroke adjusting mechanisms where precise linear travel must be set and re-verified after maintenance. In automotive connector and housing molds, they help align mold-opening and closing linkage so the actuator stroke can be tuned during machine setup without changing the entire assembly geometry.

They are also suited to industrial automation fixturing that uses guided motion over a controlled travel range. The two configurable oval hole lengths in 5 mm increments allow engineers to select an effective linkage length quickly, improving repeatability when multiple product sizes share the same base tooling.

For multi-cavity production lines, the slotted layout supports flexible installation within the required travel envelope, reducing downtime during dimension changes. The robust, slotted hole geometry maintains stable linkage behavior under load, which is important when adjusting stroke while the mechanism experiences cyclic forces.

The provided product data does not specify a steel grade, heat treatment condition, or hardness. For accurate material-property matching, confirm the actual alloy and heat-treatment state from the manufacturing documentation for series code 110200109470.

• Material selection impact: The steel grade and heat treatment primarily determine wear resistance at the slotted-hole bearing areas and the toughness needed to resist bending loads during repeated stroke adjustments.
• Heat treatment considerations: Common mold link steels are typically supplied either pre-hardened or after quench-and-temper; nitriding or surface hardening may be used when abrasion resistance is critical.
• Trade-offs: Higher hardness improves wear resistance around fastener interfaces, but can reduce toughness if not properly tempered.

If multiple material options are available for this series, compare hardness (HRC), expected cycle life, and corrosion requirements before finalizing the linkage design.

Select the tension link dimensions by matching the linkage geometry requirements of your mold-opening stroke adjusting mechanism. This variant supports two configurable oval hole lengths, allowing adjustment in 5 mm increments, which helps tune the effective stroke alignment during commissioning.

• Thickness: Choose 9 mm or 16 mm to match available mounting envelope and load capacity of your linkage assembly.
• Link width (A): Select from 19, 25, 32, 38 mm based on bracket spacing and stiffness needs.
• Set hole geometry: Use the required slotted-hole pitch (S) in the range 15–130, 15–135, 25–140, or 25–150 mm (depending on the configuration family). Then select the corresponding L range: 100–320, 115–335, 140–385, or 150–410 mm.
• Dimension alterations: Ensure SC and TC alteration ranges align with your design: SC 16–129 (or 16–134/26–139/25–149) and TC 41–139 (or 51–179/51–184), matching the intended pin/fastener spacing.

Because specific tolerances and fits are not listed in the input data, verify pin/bolt clearances against your fastener diameter and mounting standards before assembly.
