Why are ejector pins made of hard yet shock resistant materials?

What will be an ideal response?


Ejector pins can meet resistance when ejecting a part that is stuck in the mold. This resistance can cause some impact forces on the pins which, if they were brittle, could cause them to break. In normal use, the ejector pins must be strong enough to push out the part. Furthermore, the constant sliding of the long ejector pins requires certain strength to keep from breaking and excessive wearing.
