Progressive Components announces the recent expansion of its line of TI Pins, which now include 267 new standard sizes offered in new, longer lengths.
Unlike stamping punches, which are sometimes used as core pins in molds, Progressive’s exclusive TI Pins feature heads that are precision ground to mold tolerances. Also, rather than beginning with a fractional-diameter core pin, step grinding can be eliminated with mold inserts attached to the molded part diameter via wire EDM, requiring TI Pins only to be cut to the finished length.
Designed to fit into small, crowded cavity and core inserts, Progressive’s TI Pins are manufactured with hardened M2 steel and available in diameters from 0.060" to 0.320" in 2.5" and 5.5" lengths. Cut-to-length and custom options are also available.
