Over 20 years ago Bruce Plastics pioneered the development of overmolded products by combining the unique properties of our rubber-like plastic Polylastomer® components with our many years of experience producing insert molded products. One of our first overmolded products was developed for a leading computer manufacturer. Today we have manufactured literally millions of overmolded parts. Many of our customers produce consumer-oriented products. Bruce Plastics' overmolding technology adds value to their products and adds consumer appeal.
In pioneering the process, Bruce Plastics has worked closely with resin manufacturers to develop materials that bond in the overmolding process. Many products use Polypropylene as the substrate to bond with Polylastomer® Thermoplastic Rubber type materials. Today there are elastomeric materials that will bond to Nylon and ABS substrates, as well. This gives designers more options in developing overmolded parts.
Bruce Plastics’ overmolding technology allows designers and engineers to create a strong structural product with excellent ergonomic comfort for the end user. Overmolded parts can add further appeal by being molded in two different colors.
Bruce Plastics would like to share our overmolding experience with you. Contact us with your needs. We will promptly help you develop high quality, economical, successful overmolded components that will assist you in selling your product.
