Product Details
A typical application of insert molding is to include one or more threaded metal inserts in a plastic part when the part is intended to fit into another part in an assembly. The plastic alone may not have sufficient mechanical properties to withstand the forces required to hold the two parts together. For example, the threads in a plastic part may wear through repeated use, which can lead to part damage. Metal inserts help enhance the performance of the plastic and ensure reliable fastening when the part is used repeatedly. This combination of plastic and metal can take advantage of the light weight of plastic and the strength of metal.

What are the key design guidelines to follow when designing insert molded parts?
As with any molded part, typical design guidelines for formability apply to insert molded parts, such as increasing draft depth to help release the part from the plastic mold and maintain a consistent wall thickness. In addition, there are unique factors to consider when designing parts for insert molding. For example, the design of undercut features can help improve the retention strength of the insert within the molded part. Since the insert must be placed into the plastic mold, it is also important to ensure that the insert is located in an accessible area of the plastic mold. Ensuring that the insert is not too deep in the part and that it is held in the plastic mold during the molding process will also help ensure a successful outcome.
