Double fabric faced injection molded fixture

Abstract

A method of forming a drain fixture is disclosed along with the resulting structure. The method includes the steps of aligning two preformed fabrics on top of each other, with connecting elements positioned between the fabrics and bonded to each of the two fabrics, positioning the connected two fabrics in a mold and centering the connected fabrics inside the mold by means of the connecting elements, injecting a plastic material through openings in the connecting elements, and filling the space between the two fabrics with the plastic material.
