Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / Injection mold design
Japanese term or phrase: ビス座
ビス座金型形状

I can't really give more info cause it's confidential, but there is hardly any context anyway. All I really know about it is that it has to do with injection molds.

Any ideas?? Thanks.

Screw retainer
Explanation:
From industry days, this might be "screw retainer". To lessen the risk of loosing screws when eg dismantling an instrument, screw retainers would be welded onto the parts, such as covers, so that the screws can be loosened to allow removal, but are 'retained' within these housings. This occurred due the inclusion of 座
Hope this helps
