100497 is a two cavity mold which is routinely inspected for structural integrity. One cavity is more susceptible to failure than the other one. Prior, both cavities were packaged in the same tote, and if parts were put in hold, it would take hours to sort the parts. Packaging totes by separate cavities will reduce extra processing to sort finished goods. (Save 30 minutes of sorting per tote)
