ABSTRACT:
An ice skate runner for use in a skate holder has an elongated metal body with a solid central portion and a pair of elongated cut-outs, one on either side of the central portion extending towards the end of the runner. The portion of the cut-out adjacent the central portion is wide and the cut-out tapers downwardly in width towards the end of the runner. The plastic holder for the runner is molded around the latter so that the plastic flows through the cut-outs. The solid central portion of the runner locks the plastic at that area and forces the plastic on cooling to shrink from both ends of the runner towards the center, relieving stress in the combination. Spacer pins are inserted in the mold adjacent the ends of the runners during the molding process and then removed thereafter to allow shrinkage space between the ends of the holder and the ends of the runner.
