Abstract
A plunger (10; 30) for use in forming parisons during the manufacture of glass containers has a glass-contacting surface layer (18; 38) formed by a material which has, at least in a tip region of the plunger, a thermal conductivity in directions parallel to the glass-contacting surface (16; 36) of the layer greater than its thermal conductivity normal to the glass-contacting surface. A suitable material is pyrolytic graphite.
