Overmolding for Military Standard Cables
What is Overmolding?
Overmolding is a specialized manufacturing process that involves applying a layer of material over a substrate, typically another type of plastic or metal. This technique enhances the durability, functionality, and appearance of the final product. Overmolding is particularly beneficial in the military sector, where products must meet rigorous standards for performance and reliability.
