Plastic Overmolding Services

At PMC, we provide high-quality plastic overmolding services, a precision injection overmolding process where one material is molded over a second material to create a cohesive, durable product. Overmolding is commonly used to enhance the performance and aesthetics of parts by adding materials that improve grip, strength, or insulation.

The Importance of Material Compatibility in Overmolding

When it comes to injection overmolding, selecting compatible materials is essential to ensure that the two substances bond effectively. Although the two plastics do not need to be identical, they must be compatible to create a strong chemical and mechanical bond. With the right materials, plastic overmolding services can yield a finished piece with enhanced durability and a longer lifespan.

Advantages of Overmolding Insert Molding

Overmolding insert molding is particularly beneficial when adding functional layers to a base material, often eliminating the need for additional assembly or fabrication steps. By molding one material over another, this process can reduce production time and overall costs, making it a cost-effective alternative to post-molding fabrication.
