Insert Molding

At Terhorst Manufacturing, we have the ability to mold in place a variety of inserts, copper studs, magnets, screws, and other items to help eliminate secondary operations. Some of the typical products we’ve manufactured include agitators, tank adapters, street elbows, roller ends, indento-lock bearings, tank fittings, nylon idler sprockets, nylon self aligning bearings, and oil line clamps. Our products have been used in a wide range of industries including Agriculture, Automotive, Lawn/gardening, Military, Construction, Aerospace, Industrial, Electronics, Food Service, and Transportation.

We are able to offer the fastest turnaround time possible. Our quality control starts the minute the orders are received and continues throughout the molding and secondary operation process to the point of assembly and shipping. We have a 24 hour staff on hand, assuring that the parts are produced to customer specifications. We use mechanical and optical equipment to achieve the highest standards of production. Upon completion of our quality control, all orders are shipped to guarantee the shortest turnaround time possible.
