Abstract:
A motor housing assembly includes a gearbox and a gearbox cover having a resilient elastomeric seal overmolded directly onto the cover. The substrate material of the first surface and the elastomeric material of the seal are molecularly compatible such that they will chemically bond at the molecular level, resulting in a fused, single-piece seal-substrate assembly.
