dual injector question

[Shaunm81]

Hi guys this might be a stupid question to some but recently I got a dual injector system but what is the reason or purpose of the aluminum rod that  feeds into the blinding block?

It keeps both injectors moving at the same speed. It won't let one get ahead of the other.

the rod that comes out of the blending block (like on basstackles dual) is simply a handle to make moving to the next mold easier. you just grab that injector and the handle at the same time, its MUCH easier than ones without the handle!

@ Shaunm81....I was wondering the same thing! lol

You know i have one  of basstackles & that never even dawned on me.  Yep i'm a goober

I pretty much live and breathe Do-It so I can't answer to the other maker's contraptions, but the Do-It Twin Injector's block rod is certainly not a handle. Note the thumb screw on the injector body bracket? The rod helps keep things in time, helps prevent any twist while injecting and the screw can be tightened so moving from mold to mold keeps things in one nice package. If you're using this as a handle you've got darned small hands.

When I am injecting 1mold I have the rod removed. I can hold the block body at the mold with one hand and pump with the other. I've done as many as four identical molds clamped together without the rod and no hassles whatever.

It keeps the basstackle in time too Tom. The handle thing is a good idea though & i'm going to start using it for one.

Yeah I  purchased the bass tackle brand and got messing with it a few days ago and I was wondering what that bar was for.  Johnny  Bass you definitely can learn so much stuff.  Thanks everyone
