The table above shows the nominal thickness of the Fixed-Die, Back Mounting Plate and Insulation Plate for each of the standard HotFlo! series.
For dies where the Back Mounting Plate and Insulation Plate are not required, the Fixed-Die thickness should be the "Total" dimension in the left hand column, or as close to it as possible.
For more information on options for Fixed-Die dimensions see "Standard Sprue Bush Lengths" and "Nozzle Seat Alignment".
If these standards do not suit a particular application, HotFlo! can manufacture a special hot sprue kit to suit your needs. See: Special Hot Sprue Designs..
