The DME X-Style straight-side interlocks are designed for use on molds with floating plates when the two parting lines must be closely aligned with each other. The X-Style straight-side interlocks are designed to be used, and to mate with two of the equivalent size DME female straight-side interlocks. The X-Style interlocks are typically used on “X” and “AX” series mold bases, as well as other mold bases with floating plates. Typical application is for use on a mold base with a stripper or floating plate. (4) X-Style interlocks and (8) female interlocks are used per mold assembly. One set is used on centerline of each end and one set on centerline of each side.
