The cost of an injection mold can vary widely based on several factors

Complexity of the part: Intricate features, thin walls, and hard-to-mold features increase the complexity and precision required in the mold, driving up the price.

Tolerances required: Tight tolerances may require additional time-consuming processes to meet specifications, increasing the cost.

Level of visual defects allowed: Smoother surfaces or special textures may require additional polishing or post-machining treatments, adding to the cost.

Location of mold production: Labor costs in different countries can significantly affect the overall cost. Countries like China may offer lower-priced molds compared to US mold houses.

Overall size of the part: Larger molds require more material and machining time, resulting in higher prices.

Number of parts required: High quantities of small parts are typically produced using multi-cavity molds, reducing cycle time and part cost but increasing mold complexity and cost.

Material of the part: Certain materials have specific requirements for heating, cooling, venting, and draft angles, necessitating additional features in the mold, which can increase the cost.

To determine the exact cost, it's best to request a quote from a mold supplier.
