An extruder head for the extrusion of tubular preforms having single-layer or multiple-layer walls, from plastics material which has been plasticized in extruders. The extruder head utilizes the so-called coextrusion system. The extruder head includes a plurality of equal or similar head parts which can be optionally placed one behind the other and each have a central annular discharge and/or passage duct. Each of the head parts has at least one spirally extending distributor which leads via an annular gap to the discharge and/or passage duct. The ends of adjacent head parts facing one another have complementary engagement elements which are used to bring the discharge and/or passage ducts into axial alignment.

An extruder head for the extrusion of tubular preforms having single-layer or multiple-layer walls, from plastics material melt which has been plasticized in extruders, the extruder head having an axis and a front end, comprising a plurality of head parts each capable of being used individually as a complete and operational unit or arranged one behind the other in any desired combination in axial direction of the extruder head and having a central annular duct extending in the axial direction, each annular duct defined by an outer surface of a sleeve and by an inner surface of a casing of the head part, each head part defining an inner cylindrical duct, a nozzle pin extending through the inner cylindrical duct of the extruder head, a discharge nozzle connected to the nozzle pin at the front end of the extruder head, each sleeve having first and second ends and each casing having first and second ends, engagement elements mounted on each first and second end of each sleeve and each first and second end of each casing, the engagement elements on the first ends of the sleeves being constructed so as to complement the engagement elements on the second ends of the sleeves and the engagement elements on the first ends of the casings being constructed so as to complement the engagement elements on the second ends of the casings, the discharge nozzle having engagement elements coupleable to the engagement elements on the ends of the sleeves and casing of the head part adjacent to the discharge nozzle, and the engagement elements on the second ends of the sleeve and the casing of one head part being coupleable to the engagement element on the first ends of the sleeves and casing of the next adjacent head part, the engagement elements acting to connect the sleeves and casings to one another in such a way that the central annular ducts of the head parts are in axial alignment, wherein each head part defines at least one spirally extending distributor means spaced radially from the central annular duct for effecting spiral flow of the melt through the head parts, and wherein each head part has an annular gap formed downstream of the distributor means for permitting flow of the plasticized plastics material from the distributor means to the central annular duct, whereby a desired single-layer or multiple-layer wall composition of the preforms is obtained by axially aligning one or more of the head parts and connecting the complementing engagement elements of head parts arranged immediately next to each other.
