Stainless Steel Water Manifold Assemblies Provide Safer and More Efficient Injection Molding

Plastixs, a supplier of equipment solutions for injection molding and material handling announces its Xtreme HiTemp manifold assemblies for more efficient and safer injection molding.

Available in standard and custom configurations, stainless steel Xtreme HiTemp water manifold assemblies distribute high-temperature molding process water at temperatures up to 450°F (230°C).

These compact, configurable assemblies can mount directly to a water unit or connect remotely using a high-temperature hose. Shutoff valves with locking handles are standard and the company also offers hoses with insulation sleeves to reduce heat loss.

Other features include operational temperatures of 320°F to 450°F for water, rated working pressure to 680 PSI and standard manifold assemblies featuring four to eight ports. Additionally, depending on the model, end and center inlet series available, parallel pair configurations are available for platen mounting, there is an insulated PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) hose with stainless steel braid and orange or blue silicone insulation sleeve and an insulated corrugated stainless steel hose with stainless steel braid and orange or blue silicone insulation sleeve.

Custom manifold assemblies are also available, designed to meet a molder’s exact specifications and delivered fully assembled for easy installation. These plug-and-play manifolds integrate seamlessly with existing molding systems.
