Locating Rings for Injection Molds

A locating ring aligns the injection mold with the machine platen and nozzle area. Quotation should follow the machine interface, mounting pattern and sprue-bushing relationship rather than the outside diameter alone.

Information to Start

Send what is available. Missing inputs can be clarified.

A complete code or controlled drawing gives the fastest start. If the file is incomplete, send the known dimensions, quantity and application so the next confirmation can be identified.

Purchasing Inputs

Details to include in the BOM or drawing.

01

Standard or machine reference

Provide the standard code, machine interface or approved drawing used for selection.

02

Outside diameter

State the locating diameter and any tolerance or fit defined by the mold design.

03

Center bore

Confirm the bore and its clearance around the nozzle and sprue-bushing area.

04

Thickness and recess

Give total thickness, steps, recesses and seating-face details.

05

Bolt pattern

List hole count, hole diameter, pitch circle and orientation where applicable.

06

Material, quantity and mating parts

State material when specified, quantity and the related sprue-bushing or mold-plate item.

Before Approval

Three checks that reduce wrong selection and rework.

Confirm the locating diameter against the target injection machine before approving the order.

Check center-bore clearance and seating height together with the sprue bushing.

Include the bolt-hole pattern and orientation instead of relying on an outside diameter only.

Buying Questions

Information commonly clarified before quotation.

What information is needed to quote a locating ring?

Send the standard or drawing, outside diameter, bore, thickness, bolt pattern, quantity and the related sprue-bushing details.

Can locating rings be quoted with sprue bushings?

Yes. Place both items in the BOM and identify the mating relationship so the interface can be reviewed together.

Can a custom bolt pattern be reviewed?

Yes. Provide a dimensioned drawing showing the hole size, pitch circle, orientation and seating faces.
