An injection moulding tool comprises a hot-runner manifold plate, at least one nozzle holder resting on said hot-runner manifold plate, a shut-off needle which is movably guided in said nozzle holder, and a piston arranged in a piston chamber and adapted to be actuated by a fluid, said piston being connected to the shut-off needle and moving said shut-off needle to its various positions. The hot-runner manifold plate comprises at least one distributor channel, the nozzle holder comprises at least one supply channel which is associated with the shut-off needle, and said at least one distributor channel is connected to said at least one supply channel. A structural design of this kind is to be simplified and rendered more compact. For this purpose, the piston chamber is integrated in the nozzle holder in such a way that the piston is arranged between the shut-off needle and the hot- runner manifold plate.
