Precision PLV Bushings

Precision LV Bushings

Our NEW Precision PLV Series of hot runner bushings follows on from the remarkable success of our Elite LV bushings.

The streamlined, self-purging flow channel design eliminates hang-ups and permits fast and easy colour changing. The moulding of temperature sensitive polymers is made simple by the distributed wattage heater element, which provides an even temperature profile along the bush length, with no additional heaters being required for most polymers.

Please Note: The Precision PLV range is now available with Plus tips only. These offer better performance and simpler selection. Full details are available in the brochures which are available for download from our technical support section.

Features & Benefits

  • Mould virtually all polymers.
  • Shot capacity from 0.5 to 4,000 grams.
  • Self-purging design.
  • Excellent colour change.
  • Replaceable heater and thermocouple.
  • Fully field-serviceable.

The Precision LV is available is 4 sizes: 187, 250, 375, 625.
