NOTE: The expansion factor must be taken into consideration prior to machining for, and installing bushing. This factor (BE) must then be added to the nominal A dimension. Formula for determining this expansion is as follows: BE = “A” dimension x 0.00000633 x nozzle set point - 68ºF (assuming the mold is at 68ºF during operation). If mold temperature is different, substitute 68ºF with actual mold temperature.

EXAMPLE: Given a 2.375 inch A dimension, with a Bushing Set Point temp. of 500°F: BE = 2.375 × .0000063 × (500 – 68) = .006 thus A + BE will be 2.381.
