Abstract

An apparatus for injection molding composite articles from two materials includes a rotary mold block carrying a two material mold half between a first material mold half and a second material mold half; the rotary block providing, in sequence, a first material mold cavity and a composite material mold cavity in which latter cavity the second material is injected over, and preferably in positive engagement with, the first material. Core pins are carried in the rotary block which includes means to index the pins for providing core areas in the first material and subsequently retracting the pins so that the second material can flow into the core areas for positive engagement of the composite molded materials.
