To aid in release, the cavity or core may be coated with a release coating such as PTFE impregnated nickel after it has been given a sandblast or EDM finish.
Hot tip gates are suitable for GLS TPEs, but they will leave some gate vestige (which can be as high as 50% to 75% of the gate diameter).
Since TPEs are slightly compressible in the molten state, larger runner volumes can cause hot tip gates to drool after the mold is opened.
