Material from which this feature is made

Use the drop-down menu to select whether you want the feature to be constructed from resin or metal. An insert block can be a non-plastic material (usually metal) that is molded into the part, or pressed into the part after molding, in order to achieve a desired cavity shape and/or cooling effect.

Click Select to edit the properties of the selection you made.
