Product Description
9 3/8 inch long nylon insert.
My best MastGate for your feed slot is this 3D printed snap-in insert.
I made a video of how to install this type of MastGate but it does not show that you also need to drill a 3/16" hole into the back web of the channel before cutting the groove into the feed slot.

Nipple DRILLING INSTALLATION: The insert sleeve is symmetrical, with two protruding nipple pins. Insert a #55 drill bit (or a finishing nail of the same diameter) into each nipple's drill guide hole before centering the insert into the feed slot. Lightly hammer the drill bit to make a mark into the aluminum back web. Remove the insert to center punch the drilling locations. First, use 1/8" drill bits, then finish drilling holes with a 3/16" drill bit. Hand twist a larger drill bit in the holes to remove burrs. Nipple pins of the nylon insert will key into the holes to prevent unintentional sliding of the insert.
REMOVAL: Top & Bottom ends of the insert sleeve have outer edge notches. Squeezing notches together with tweezer to pull the insert up & out.
