SOURCING AN INJECTION MOLD FROM CHINA, ANSWERED

Frequently Asked Sourcing Questions

How much does injection mold tooling cost in China compared to the US?

A China built injection mold typically lands well below a comparable US built mold, which is why so many programs source tooling from China in the first place. Exact pricing depends on part size, cavitation, tolerances, and steel grade, so every quote from TK includes a free DFM review and a line item breakdown before any steel is cut. Send your part and you get a real number, not a range.

What is the typical lead time for an injection mold from China?

Lead time is driven by cavitation, part complexity, and the finishing the part requires. TK builds the tooling in China, runs T1 samples, and holds production until you approve those samples. Your timeline is confirmed in writing at quote stage so there are no moving targets after the program starts.

Is there a US-based point of contact for technical support?

Yes, that is exactly what TK Mold USA is. Brandon Henderson is your sole technical contact and broker in North Carolina, in your time zone, from RFQ through first article and into production. You get China manufacturing pricing with a US based engineer accountable to you the entire way, so there is no call center and no black box between you and the mold shop.

Where are the molds actually built?

Molds are built in TK Group’s own manufacturing facilities in China and Vietnam. Parent company TK Group (Holdings) Ltd. is a Hong Kong Main Board listed manufacturer (Stock Code: 2283.hk) with 42+ years of precision tooling and molding for global brands. TK Mold USA is the US based technical support and brokerage channel that puts a local toolmaker on every North American program.

Do you handle tooling-only programs or full injection molding services?

TK is built for production programs, from tooling-only builds where you run the overseas built mold in your own North American plant, to full turnkey injection molding services at high volume in China or low-tariff Vietnam. Share your annual volume with your part and Brandon will tell you honestly whether TK is the right fit before you invest a dollar.

How is our proprietary design & IP legally protected?

Your part, drawings, and program details stay strictly private. TK works under NDA on request, and nothing about your design is shared or reused. You approve T1 samples before any production, and the tooling you pay for is yours outright. A US based point of contact means accountability sits with a name you can reach, not an anonymous overseas inbox.
