A grip body of a body care article, such as toothbrush, includes a grip part, a neck part, and a head part. The grip body includes a first and a second material component of a thermoplastic plastic. Manufacturing of the grip body is performed via an injection moulding tool with at least one tool cavity, and the grip body including a first, second, and third material component of a first, second, and third thermoplastic material, respectively.

A catheter manufacturing method includes positioning a shaft in a cavity of a mold. The shaft is an elongated tubular body configured to be inserted into a living body. The mold includes a first mold die and a second mold die that contact one another to define a closed space which is the cavity. The method includes injecting a molding material into the cavity from a gate at a position between the proximal end and the distal end of the shaft in the axial direction. The injecting position is offset from the center of the shaft in the transverse direction. The method includes molding a hub onto the shaft by solidifying the injected molding material in the cavity onto the outer surface of the shaft.
