ABSTRACT:
A housing assembly (5) for use with electrical/electronic components includes a housing (10), spacer sleeves (20) spaced along a periphery of the housing (10), and at least one electrical component (40) in a cavity (6) of the housing (10). Seamed spacer sleeve (20) is insert molded into the dielectric material of the housing (10) and is arranged to withstand compressive forces from a fastener inserted therein and includes dimples (21) for receiving the plastic material during an injection molding process and is a stamped and formed member. The use of an insert molded spacer sleeve reduces the cost of the housing (10) and provides a means of transmitting compressive forces which avoids compressive forces acting on the housing (10) thereby avoiding cracking and fracturing of the housing (10).
