Injection tooling for industrial & agriculture equipment

Closures, covers and housings for equipment that lives outdoors, where a thread that leaks is a warranty claim.

Industrial and Agriculture Equipment is the third plastic parts group defined on the TJ-Teck site. The parts are less about cosmetics and more about sealing, wall strength and parts that survive being taken apart in a field rather than on a bench.

That makes unscrewing moulds and enclosure tooling the centre of the work: threaded caps with no parting line through the flank, and housings with continuous sealing lips.

What matters here

Four things this sector gets wrong most often

1

Threads off an unscrewing core

A split-core thread leaves two flash lines down the flank and those lines are the leak path. TJ-Teck builds unscrewing moulds as a standard mould type.

2

Enclosures with an uninterrupted gasket face

The sealing lip stays on one piece of steel wherever the geometry allows, so nothing crosses the gasket contact.

3

Steel grades chosen for the run, not the sample

The quoted grade is stated on the quotation, from 1.1730 and 1.2311 through 1.2738 and its H and HH variants to 1.2343, 1.2344 and H13.

4

Wear items designed as replaceable inserts

Shut-offs and cores that take the wear are designed as inserts, so field-service volumes do not turn into a weld repair on the whole block.
