Abstract
Inserts ( ) to reduce noise from photoconductor drums during use are molded by thermal injection to have a bridge ( ) across the longitudinal gap ( ) of the insert. In the preferred embodiment the bridge is centered with respect to the long dimension of the insert and the bridge is in the form of a rectangle and thin. The bridge holds the shape of the insert during cooling after molding. Subsequently, the bridge may be severed or cut out, but that is generally unnecessary.
