This custom overmolding injection mold is developed for the Main Body Overmolding Frame, overmolded with blue TPE grade TF4FMS. The overmolding process bonds soft TPE material onto the rigid substrate, delivering comfortable soft-touch surface while maintaining structural integrity of the finished part. It is a single cavity tool with sub gate (pin point gate) feeding design, built with NAK80 pre-hardened mold steel for stable mass production, and the mold surface is finished with VDI 16 texture to match the required cosmetic appearance of TPE overmolded component.

Adopt proven overmolding structure, specially optimized for TF4FMS TPE material to achieve reliable adhesion between soft TPE and hard substrate, effectively avoid peeling and delamination issue during product service life.
NAK80 pre-hardened mold steel with HRC 37-43 hardness, good polish & texturing performance, suitable for long-run mass production with stable dimension control and low mold maintenance cost.
Sub gate design realizes automatic gate break, reduces post-processing work and improves production efficiency, clean gate mark on finished TPE overmolded part.
VDI16 standard texture on mold surface ensures uniform and consistent matte cosmetic effect on TPE soft surface, meeting customer visual and touch requirement.
Strict mold flow analysis before mold manufacturing, to optimize filling path, reduce air trap, sink mark and warpage risk for thin-wall soft TPE overmolding parts.

Q1: What is overmolding?A: Overmolding is a 2-step injection molding process, inject soft TPE material over a pre-molded rigid plastic insert, to combine hard structure and soft touch surface in one finished part.
Q2: Why choose NAK80 steel for this TPE overmold?A: NAK80 pre-hardened steel has excellent texture retention, good machinability, sufficient hardness for medium volume production, perfect for molds requiring VDI etched texture.
Q3: Can you produce finished TPE overmolded parts besides mold making?A: Yes, we support both mold fabrication and volume injection production. We can produce TPE TF4FMS blue overmolded finished products according to your order.
