Moulds for Internally Threaded
Components
Definition : An internal undercut in that the
thread forms a restriction which prevents
straight draw removal of the moulding from the
core.

Alternative designs:
Single interrupted thread design
Stripping thread design
Loose threaded core design
Split core design
Fixed threaded core design
Collapsible threaded core design
Unscrewing mould design

General / Basic Product Requirements:-


 The component has a rolled thread form.
 The thread depth is relatively shallow in
relation to diameter.
 The moulding material is sufficiently
elastic.
