Description
Overview
A spring-loaded copper locating pin for aligning bakelite blister molds in a heat-sealing press. It comes in six lengths from 15 mm to 50 mm, and the elastic pin travel lets the mold halves seat before the sealer closes.
Specifications
- Lengths: 15 mm, 28 mm, 30 mm, 38 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm
- Body material: copper
- Action: elastic, spring-loaded pin
- Role: positioning column and locating nail
- Fits: bakelite blister heat-sealing molds and sealers
Purpose
A mold that creeps sideways during closing spoils the seal and marks the blister, so a sprung pin centers the halves and absorbs the press stroke. Six lengths cover the stack heights found across different die sets.
Applications
- Blister packaging heat sealers
- Bakelite mold alignment
- Heat-sealing die sets
- Locating plates in jigs
- Replacing a worn guide pin
How to Use
- Measure the plate thickness and pick the length that leaves the pin proud of the face.
- Press the pin into its bore and check it stands square.
- Work the spring by hand to confirm travel before loading a mold.
- Close the press slowly and watch the halves align on the first cycle.
- Caution: copper is soft and carries heat, so keep the pin clear of the heater bar and never hammer it into a bore.
