Plastic Syringe Set: Moulded Barrel and a Soft Polyethylene Piston
Four moulded parts make a plastic syringe with no rubber seal and no grease: a stiff barrel with a taper nozzle, a bell-shaped piston whose thin polyethylene lips seal against the wall, a slim plunger shaft, and a cap whose long sleeve guides the shaft so it cannot bend and tilt the piston (Adorján & Dávid, US 4,704,105, 1987). Mould one set of moulds per size for a set of syringes for hydraulic models.
The piston figures are the patent's. Polypropylene, LDPE, the sizes and the mould making are ours. Not for medical use. The picture: Figs. 1-2.

Mill the barrel mould
Mill the barrel mould
Mill a two-plate mould for the barrel (1): a stiff-walled tube closed at one end by a nozzle (11) with a standard needle taper (ours: the Luer taper), and two finger grips (12) at the open end. One mould per syringe size you want, for example 5, 50 and 60 ml (ours).

The piston (2) is a bell: a rim 5-7 mm high whose two edges flare out into lips 0.3-0.5 mm thick, a front groove 0.3-0.5 mm wide and 2-2.5 mm deep, and a central shank. The lips must come out 0.2-0.6 mm wider than the barrel bore; the rim between them no wider than the bore.

Shaft (3): thumb rest (31), a bead (32) and an end projection (33) a little larger than the piston's bore. Cap (4): a disc with an outer collar (42) that force-fits the barrel and an inner sleeve (43) at least as long as the shaft is thick.

Check the lip size
Check the lip size
Measure the barrel bore and a piston's lips. The lips must be 0.2-0.6 mm wider than the bore. Adjust the mould if not.

Push the piston into the barrel. Thread the shaft through the cap's sleeve and force the cap's outer collar into the open end of the barrel. Its end face now stops the piston when you draw it fully back.

Lock the cap
Lock the cap
Press two dents, opposite each other, through the barrel wall into the cap collar with a hot tool so the cap cannot pull out. Ours: a soldering iron tip.

Test the seal
Test the seal
Draw water and push it out, along the whole stroke, with no grease. It should move smoothly from the start and not leak past the lips. Note the size and file it into your set.
