Optimizing injection molding is challenging enough without having to worry about part defects, outgassing and damage to molds and ejector pins.

Injection molders have turned to Slide to solve their problems since 1953 when a molder asked our founder, Percy Harms, to help him stop parts from sticking in the mold. Slide Silicone Mold Release was created to help this one molder and since then Slide has been dedicated to helping processors like you solve problems and maximize production.

Solutions to Your Most Frustrating Problems

Learn how to solve common and disruptive injection molding problems with Slide productivity solutions for injection molders:

• Stop parts from sticking in the mold: mold releases ensure parts release properly to maximize productivity, shorten cycle time and extend the use of older molds
• Thoroughly remove stubborn resin buildup and grease while offline: mold cleaners ensure a strong, powerful, effective clean throughout the mold that quickly evaporates so there is no need to wipe off after cleaning
• Quickly remove stubborn resin buildup and grease while online: mold cleaners flash off on warm molds so they can remain in production
• Protect and clean molds: our Mold Polish (a non-aerosol paste) ensures a mirror-like finish without scratches
• Protect against rust and corrosion: rust preventives ensure your molds are protected for short and long-term storage
• Dramatically reduce purging time: purging compounds cut purge time by up to 90% and reduce resin waste, turning downtime into productive, profitable time spent molding
• Safely mold plastic parts for food and medical: NSF-certified products are food-grade and recommended for molding medical parts
• Prevent ejector pin galling, pitting, seizing, and other damage: high-temperature ejector pin grease and the right procedures prevent thermal and viscosity breakdown of the grease that can lead to seizing, parts not ejecting properly and part defects
