A Design Study in Steel - Spokane Industries Steel Snubber Arm

Mold Configuration

With the edge orientation of the snubber arm, the mold was configured as a "two-on" mold with two snubber arms produced in each mold . 

The figure to the right shows the basic design of the  two-on mold.

The mold uses a center gate to feed the molten metal into the two castings. 

The mold size is 42" x 48" with a drag depth of 8"  and a cope height of 12".
