Abstract
A runner turn-off for a mold. The runner turn-off includes a bottom ring and a top ring rotatable on the bottom ring. The runner turn-off has a generally cylindrical shape to allow for the rotation, and includes a machining flat on each of two opposing sides of the bottom ring and partially extending into the top ring. A plurality of detents is disposed in one of a bottom surface of the top ring or a top surface of the bottom ring. A spring plunger between the top ring and the bottom ring and configured to fit within each of the plurality of detents when aligned to provide more precise angular positioning.
