Abstract
A die cast mould apparatus having a base for supporting a mould body partially defining a mould cavity. A mould body insert is insertable in the partially defined mould cavity and may be locked in this position to complete the mould cavity. The mould body insert is mounted on a retainer which is mounted in a channel, in a support extending from the base. The retainer may be locked to the support in the channel by way of interlocking wedges on the retainer and wedge receptors in the channel walls of the support, thereby locking the insert in the position to complete the mould cavity.
