Overmolding to Ultem
Overmolding to Ultem
(OP)
I've been digging around all day, but no luck. Has anyone had any luck overmolding to Ultem? If so, what TPE did you use?

RE: Overmolding to Ultem
I have successfully overmolded Santoprene over Ultem.
You should be able to overmold just about any TPE over Ultem, since Ultem is a high heat material. Although your design of the Ultem part may have to incorporate certain features to help secure the TPE to the Ultem.
