TOOL FOR MOLDING PLASTIC ARTICLES Abstract of The Disclosure This mold tooling has a hot drop assembly operatively mounted in a bore formed therein which opens to a mold face. Heated plastic material is fed to a feed tube of the hot drop assembly and this material is heated at a temperature higher than the working temperature of the mold during its transit the face of the tool by electrically energized heater bands encircling the feed tube. The space between the heater bands and bore wall accommodates tubing through which a flow of chilled cooling air is injected. The temperature and amount of the cooling air may be regulated to match the heat energy discharged by the heating bands into the bore and to the body of the tooling. The flow of cooling air transmits heat energy out of the bore so that heat sensitive plastic materials being molded is not degraded by hot drop assembly heat energy that otherwise would be conducted by the tool body to the tool face.
