    Abstract: A molded tooling fixture (10) for supporting an airfoil (16) during an electrochemical stripping process comprises a holder (14) for receiving the airfoil, which holder (14) has a slot (24) in which a serrated portion of the airfoil is positioned. The holder (14) is formed from an electrically non-conductive material such as molded plastic. The slot (24) has at least one serrated surface (28,30) which mates with at least one serration (22) on the airfoil (16). The fixture (10) further includes a support arm (12) on which the holder (14) is supported. The support arm (12) is also formed from an electrically non-conductive material such as molded plastic. Still further, the fixture (10) includes a rod (80) formed from an electrically conductive material which sits in a groove (68) in the support arm (12) and which contacts a lower surface (86) of the airfoil (16).
