1. Vent land will be .06". The vent clearance can be .12" - .50" wide * .02" deep (refer to drawing S5-1) and are always routed to atmosphere. Vents are normally ground. Milled vents must be polished.
2. Perimeter vent land should be .125"minimum to .250" maximum.
3. Always vent directly opposite the gate and at all runner ends/cold well slugs.
4. Ejector pin vents are sometimes necessary. Refer to drawing S5-2 for ejector pin vent design guidelines.
