12-Cavity Paint Pail Lid Mold – High-Gloss Upper Cover Tooling | Trusted China Manufacturer – Taoyuan Mould

Taoyuan Mould – Professional Bottle & Pail Cap Mold Manufacturer

We are a leading manufacturer of high-cavitation paint cap molds, specializing in the 12-cavity paint cap upper cover mold – also known as the outer pail lid, snap-on bucket cover, or paint container closure.

The upper cover is the visible, load-bearing lid that snaps or screws onto a paint pail. It requires excellent flatness, surface finish (often high-gloss or textured), and consistent snap-fit force. Our 12-cavity mold delivers all of these at high output with minimal maintenance.
