Abstract
A method of manufacturing an injection molded product. Thermoplastic is injected through a runner system and into a gate member. The gate member is generally V-shaped and thermoplastic is displaced through the gate into a mold cavity at a nearly perpendicular angle to the surface of the indicia carrier to hold the indicia carrier against the mold cavity. This allows the indicia carrier to be fused to the thermoplastic body during the making of a product.
