Abstract

See full text

A faucet spout or other component has a metal housing with a plastic liner in an opening in the housing. The faucet component is made by first molding a plastic insert having an elongated body and an opening extending through the elongated body from a first end to a second end. The plastic insert is secured inside of a metal mold. The metal mold is heated (or cooled) to a temperature below the melting temperature of the molded plastic and molten metal is poured in the mold. The molded melting temperature of the plastic is high enough and the metal mold temperature is low enough so that the insert does not melt during the metal molding process.
