Hello all!

I am attempting to design an injection-molded part (using Nylon 6, 15% glass infill) that will warp back on itself after being ejected from the mold, in a predictable and repeatable fashion.

I work for a company that makes holsters for concealed carry, and we utilize a variety of accessories so that people can configure how they carry based on their personal needs. One such attachment is known as the "c" or "j" clip, which attaches to the holster, curves over the belt, and wraps back onto itself below the belt. It's actually quite a common part, so I'm sure this is not that hard to accomplish, I just can't find anything online on how to achieve the effect. All I can find is guides on how to avoid warpage.

I'm thinking that a bit of extra thickness at the 180 degree turn might be all it takes, but I would really like some confirmation before we invest in a mold.

I will attach some images that illustrate how this product looks and functions below.

Forgive me if the answer is obvious! I'm new to this.

Thanks,

-Eric
