To make good quality 5 gallon cap mould, another important is the proper tear-ring design. It is requested no thick no thin, so experiences and skills play a key role.  If a moldmaker never made cap mold, we believe it’s not easy for him to figue out this technical difficulty.

Above is single color 5 gallon cap mould, or we say normal 5 gallon cap mould.  Besides, we also have the ability of producing two-shot 5 gallon cap mould(double color 5 gallon cap mould). We know sealing ring inside of cap is very important. By making two-shot molding, the seal ring would be better. And for seal ring plastic material, we can use TPR/TPE(food grade).
