Injection 4 – 12,000
Hold 3 – 9,000
Back 0 – 50


Maximum Moisture:
0.2%

Mold Temperature:
150-250 °F, highly filled grades require >175 °F to obtain the best overall surface appearance

Residence Time:
Should not exceed 6 minutes, less with higher melt temps.

Shot Size:
Should be between 25-75% of barrel capacity.

Fill Rate:
Fast fill rates are suggested for best surface appearance.
