Tooth brush or anything ;) base Mold

Indicates the type of inlet connector on this mould — the entry point where molten plastic flows from the injection machine into the mould. 

Make sure this is compatible with your injection machine's nozzle type before purchasing.

Indicates how long you need to wait after injection before safely opening this mould. 

Shorter cooling times allow for faster production cycles.

Indicates how this mould was manufactured. 

The manufacturing technique affects the mould's precision, durability, and surface finish, which in turn influences the quality of your final plastic products.

The type of connection between the machine's nozzle and the mould. 

Thread nozzles screw directly into the mould for a secure, leak-proof connection, while tapered nozzles press fit into the mould opening. 

Make sure your mould is compatible with your machine's nozzle type before purchasing.

Indicates whether this is a ready-made mould you can purchase and receive directly, or a custom mould-making service where the seller will produce a mould based on your specific design and requirements. 

Delivery times for custom moulds will typically be longer than for pre-made ones.

Indicates whether products made with this mould will have the plastic type symbol marked on them. 

This makes it easier to sort and recycle the finished product at end of life.

The volume of plastic needed to fill this mould in a single injection cycle. 

Use this to check compatibility with your injection machine's shot volume before purchasing: your machine's shot volume must be equal to or greater than this value.

Indicates the surface finish of this mould, which directly affects the texture and appearance of your finished plastic pieces. 

A polished finish produces smooth, shiny surfaces. 

A bead blasted finish produces a matte, uniform texture. 

"No finish" means the mould surface is left as-machined — suitable for functional parts where appearance is less important.

The number of individual pieces this mould produces per injection cycle. 

A mould that produces multiple pieces per injection significantly increases your production output compared to a single-piece mould.
