18.3 Melt-Disk Preparation / Cleaning
CAUTION
Torque the gate seals at processing temperatures. Failure may result in
leakage.
CAUTION
All nozzles, manifolds and components must be free of the rust inhibitor
applied at the factory.
1. Disassemble the Melt-Disk assembly.
2. Wipe down the Melt-Disk.
3. Remove the part and wipe clean. If necessary, use a cotton swab to clean
narrow interior surfaces or screw threads. For larger surfaces, such as
mold plates use thinner in spray form to clean channels and recesses.
4. Apply anti-seize compound to the threads of the gate seals, using Mold-
Masters supplied compound.
5. Insert the pointed end of the tips (torpedoes) into the threaded end of the
gate seal.
