Swedish term or phrase: pågjutning av plast på metall
Hello

This looks simple but all my attempts to translate it more or less literally like "casting of plastic onto metal" get zero or very few hits on Google. I then found "overmouding" and the description of this process seems to match what I think the Swedish means

"Overmoulding" gets hits of course but as soon as I try "overmoulding of plastic on(to) metal" or other similar phrases, I'm back to very few Google hits.

What skulduggery is going on here?
Any help appreciated

agree  Adrian MM.: to make a 'mouldy point', the asker may be after BrE moulding spelling vs. molding in US AmE
