A method for molding a gasket or casing around a peripheral portion of sheet material with portions of a separate part embedded within the gasket and other portions extending out of the gasket is disclosed. Preferably, the method is used to form vehicular window assemblies and includes inserting a separate part in a pocket or recess in one of two cooperating mold sections prior to closing the mold, closing the mold such that a portion of the separate part is urged tightly against a part of the recess by the sheet material in the mold, and filling the mold cavity to embed part of the separate part in the gasket while another portion extends out of the cavity.

A method for molding a gasket or casing around a peripheral portion of sheet material with portions of a separate part embedded within said gasket or casing and other portions extending out of said gasket or casing, said method comprising: providing a mold assembly having cooperating mold sections defining a mold cavity; supporting a sheet of material within said old sections with said mold cavity outlining at least a portion of the periphery of said sheet material such that said sheet periphery projects into said mold cavity; providing said separate part for insertion in the mold assembly, said separate part having a first, second and third portions, said first portion being resilient and compressible; inserting said second portion of said separate part into a recess in one of the mold sections prior to closing said mold sections such that said second portion of said separate part is held in said recess and out of said mold cavity while said first portion extends into said mold cavity; closing said mold sections to engage and compress said first portion of said separate part with and against said sheet material to cause pressure which urges said third portion of said separate part into tight contact with another part of said one mold section; filling said mold cavity with a flowable molding material to form the gasket or casing around the sheet periphery and to embed said first portion of said separate part in said gasket or casing while said second portion of said separate extends out of said gasket or casing, said pressure of said third portion of said separate part in tight contact against said other part of said one mold section preventing flow of molding material around said second portion of said separate part to prevent embedding of that second portion in said gasket or cashing; and opening said mold sections after formation of said gasket or casing and removing said sheet material from said mold assembly with said gasket or casing thereon and said second portion of said separate part extending out of said gasket or casing.
