ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An method of making an elongated component for a tampon applicator includes the use of an injection mold having an elongated mold cavity that corresponds to the desired shape of the component. The injection mold has a melt flow channel defined therein which extends in the elongated direction and has a thickness which is greater than the thickness of the adjacent portion of the mold cavity. The method further includes the steps of injecting a solidifiable liquid material into the elongated mold cavity and removing the formed component from the injection mold once the material has solidified. The melt flow channel enables the component to be formed with thinner walls, and with more viscous liquid material than was heretofore possible. The invention also embraces the mold assembly and the component itself.
