TiN Coated H13 Sprue Bushings for Die Casting Molds
Critical die casting mold components used to guide molten metal from the injection system into the mold cavity. Installed at the mold entrance, these sprue bushings ensure smooth and controlled metal flow while protecting the mold structure from wear and thermal damage.
Product Overview
Manufactured from H13 hot-work tool steel and enhanced with Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, these sprue bushings provide superior resistance to heat, erosion, and metal adhesion. The TiN coating improves surface hardness and reduces friction, helping maintain stable metal flow during high-pressure die casting operations.
These components are widely used in aluminum, zinc, and magnesium die casting molds, ensuring reliable gating performance and extended mold service life.
