Provided among other things is a glove formed by latex dipping having one or more textured finger tips wherein: the texture at the finger tips results from forming the glove on a former having the following properties:

TABLE-US-00001 (micrometer) Ra Av. roughness about 7-14 Rsm Mean width of roughness about 500-720 Rpc Peak count about 15-20
the glove being non-chlorinated, wherein the glove is a (i) single dip nitrile glove or (ii) a dipped glove with a textured layer formed of polymer latex, and comprising a multivalent metal ion salt of an organic acid with log P of about 4 to about 15.

A cover for a housing of an electric machine is provided. The cover may include an inner sidewall and an outer sidewall. The outer sidewall may be spaced apart from the inner sidewall to define a coolant channel therebetween. The inner sidewall and outer sidewall may be defined by an interior surface of the cover such that the coolant channel receives end windings of a stator of the electric machine when the cover is secured to the housing. The interior surface of the cover may define features between the sidewalls to promote turbulence of coolant flowing through the coolant channel. The interior surface of the cover may define a meandering trough between the sidewalls to form a predetermined coolant path relative to a location of the end windings when the cover is secured to the housing.

A mandrel configured to facilitate release of an elastomeric part cured thereon may comprise an elongated body having an outer surface, an internal cavity formed in the elongated body, and a passage providing fluid communication between the internal cavity and the outer surface of the body. The passage may be dimensioned so as to permit a flow of a fluid from the internal cavity to the outer surface of the body and to preclude a flow of an uncured elastomer into the passage. The flow of the fluid from the internal cavity to the outer surface may cause the fluid to intervene between the outer surface of the mandrel and the elastomeric part to facilitate the release of the elastomeric part from the mandrel.

The invention is related to the production of pet preform and similar plastic products. as well as similar-shaped metallic pieces manufactured by plastic injection.
