snap fit tolerances in HDPE valve design

snap fit tolerances in HDPE valve design

(OP)
hello, I did try to do an initial search for answers. I have a job involving a valve injection molded out of high density Polyethylene. The valve has two parts which must snap fit into each other. The snap fits must not come undone from air pressure of an inflated bag. Can anyone help me figure out what the parameters of the snap fit should be for hdpe? I am a product designer by trade in this is a bit beyond my normal abilities. Any tips or resources?

Thanks so much!!!!!!!
