Angular Pins Tapped Hexagonal Socket Stepped Type

This stepped angular pin is used in injection mold tooling where reliable alignment and secure fastening are needed in angled or off-axis assemblies.

• Angled ejector or return mechanisms: The stepped geometry improves positioning during installation, helping maintain consistent engagement when the component stack is not perfectly vertical. The tapped, hexagonal-socket interface is suited for controlled tightening using the matching wrench system.
• Automotive and industrial appliance molds: In high-cycle tooling, secure fastening reduces the risk of loosening from vibration and repeated actuation. The stepped form provides better positional control, supporting stable alignment of angular sub-assemblies.
• Radius/angled alignment features: For molds with angular components or offset mounting faces, the tapped configuration allows repeatable fastening while the stepped profile helps maintain concentricity during maintenance.

With D = 10–40 mm and L = 30–60 mm, this variant can be matched to common angled pinning layouts to improve setup repeatability and reduce wear-related alignment drift.

The provided specifications describe geometry and fastening interface, but no steel grade or heat-treatment state is listed for this series. Therefore, material-related values such as HRC hardness, nitriding/carburizing, or quenched-and-tempered treatment cannot be stated from the input data.

When selecting a material for angular pins in ejector and alignment applications, engineers typically balance wear resistance (to resist fretting from repeated motion) against toughness (to avoid chipping under installation load). The tapped hexagonal socket design helps distribute tightening force, which can reduce stress concentration compared with smoother interfaces.

• If multiple material options exist for this product line: compare them by target hardness and expected surface wear requirements for your cycle count.
• If you need a specific grade: confirm the steel designation and heat-treatment process with Axiom Molds before finalizing the mold build.

To select the correct angular pin dimensions, start by matching the required diameter (D) and overall length (L) to the mold’s angular assembly design.

• Diameter D: choose from 10–40 mm based on the pin-hole size and the load transmitted in the angled stack.
• Length L: choose from 30–60 mm to ensure sufficient thread engagement length and proper seating without bottoming in the cavity/core.
• Section length N (Dh7): select the stepped interface length within the available ranges: 0–200, 0–250, 0–350, or 0–400 mm. This parameter corresponds to the stepped-length features referenced as Dh7 in the specification.

For fit and repeatability, ensure the mating hole is designed to the referenced Dh7 fit concept for the stepped section. If your angular assembly has tight positional requirements, verify that the selected N and L provide the intended contact geometry and do not introduce axial interference after tightening.
