FIG. 1
FIG. 2
Always remove the 0.25 extra stock allowance and alter
the "A" dimension to suit whenever gating into flat surface.
Minimum stock removal of 0.25 provides and approximate
0.06 gate diameter (Figure 1).
DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR ALTERING E-SERIES
STRAIGHT - SHOT HOT SPRUE BUSHINGS (Long andShort Styles).
FIG. 3
FIG. 4
Maximum stock removal of 0.268 provides an approximate 0.08
gate diameter (Figure 2). Maximum stock removal of 0.268 is
recomended for gate diameters larger than 0.08 (Figures 3 and 4).
FIG. 5
FIG. 6
Always machine runner profile or part contour to the 0.268 maximum
depth at centerline of gate (Figures 5 and 6). However, do not weaken
the bushing face by exceeding this maximum dimension. *Resultant
gate diameter may be enlarged to suit the particular molding application.
The D-M-E Standard E-Series Straight shot
(Long-Style) is available in seven standard
shoulder lengths with either a 1/2 or 3/4 spherical
radius and 120 or 240 volt heater.The E-Series
Straight-Shot (Long Style) can be retrofitted to
suit the particular molding application.
NOTE; The 5 heater lead is standard. A 90
heater lead is avilable on special request.
The D-M-E Standard E-Series Straight Shot
(Short-Style) is intended to suit the requirement
of smaller injection molding machines such as
Aburg Boy and Jaco. It is supplied with a 7/8 "A"
dimension. The "A" dimension can be altered to
suit the particular molding application.
NOTE: The 5 heater lead is standard. A 90
heater lead is available on special request.
D-M-E Standard E-Series Straight-Shot Hot Sprue Bushings
(Long and Short Styles) provide .25 extra stock allowance on
the front face to permit machining runner profiles or part contours
into that face.
They are supplied with a .06 diameter gate and a .25 gate land. The
gate diameter can be enlarged to suit the particular molding application.

WARNING
DANGER
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
A hot-runner system includes electrical elements and may contain molten
plastic at elevated temperature and pressure.To avoid injury, exercise
caution by reading these instructions before servicing or operating the
system.
These instructions must be passed on to the end user where they should
be read before using this product. Failure to do so can result in serious
injury or death.
Failure to comply can result in serious injury or death:
STORED ENERGY AND HIGH TEMPERATURE HAZARDS
This product maintains molten plastic at high pressure. Use caution when
operating and servicing the system.
Physical contact with molten plastic may result in severe burns. Proper
protective equipment, including eye protection, must be worn.
This product has heated surfaces. Use caution when operating and servicing the
system to avoid severe burns. Proper protective equipment should be worn.
Failure to comply will result in serious injury or death:
ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
Improper voltages or grounding can result in electrical shock. Use only
with proper voltage and a proper earth ground.
To avoid electrical shock, do not operate product when wet.
Do not operate this equipment with covers or panels removed.
To avoid electrical shock, turn off main power disconnect and lockout /
tag out before servicing this device. Do not connect temperature sensors to
electrical power. It will damage the product and it can cause fire, severe
injuries or even death.
If green ground wire present wire must be connected to the ground.
Do not rebend rigid leads. Rebending leads might result in damage to circuit.
Product might absorb moisture when cool. Use low Voltage or power to drive
out residual moisture before applying full power. Failure to do so may cause
damage to this product.
D-M-E SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR MISUSE OR FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE ENCLOSED
INSTRUCTIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS. D-M-E HERBY TO DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED

HOT SPRUE BUSHINGS
SHADED AREAS DIMENSIONED WITH "X" MAY BE REDUCED IN DIAMETER AS SHOWN,
TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL RELIEF.
Excessive contact between the 1" and 2" outside diameters of the Straight-Shot and matching 1" and
2" bores in the mold base may result in a heat loss, causing repeated busing freeze off. Iff freeze off
due to heat loss should occur, the Straight-Shot Hot Sprue Bushings may be relieved as shown.
Minimize the amount of O.D.bushing contact to the mold, leaving sufficient contact on the 1" and 2"
diameters to assure flash-free molding and proper support.
This will help insulate and keep the heat in the bushing.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION
WIRING INFORMATION
Square Coil Heaters are supplied with 45" long leads.
Heaters are 240 VAC or 120 VAC depending
on the configuration.
2 power leads are Multi Color.
1 ground lead is GREEN.
Thermocouple is "J" Type.
Thermocouple is supplied with 45" leads.
1 T/C lead is WHITE and negative (
-
)
constantan (non-magnetic).
1 T/C lead is BLACK and positive (+)
iron (magnetic).
The standard S-Series Straight-Shot is designed for direct part gating or for
feeding half round or trapezoidal runners. It is supplied with a 0.16 diameter
gate and no gate land. It is available in seven standard shoulder lengths with
either a 1/2 or 3/4 spherical radius and 120 or 240 volt heater. The S-Series
Straight-Shot can be retrofitted to almost any mold that uses a conventional
sprue bushing.
NOTE: The 5 heater lead is standard.
A 90 heater lead is available on special request.
The D-M-E Standard T Series Straight-Shot improves the performance of the three-plate
molds by virtually eliminating the sprue from the runner system. It is available with either
1/2 or 3/4 spherical radius, 120 or 240 volt heater and a 7/8 or 1 3/8 long stripper plate
bushing to suit the application.
NOTE: The 5 heater lead is standard.
A 90 heater lead is available on special request.
