Rubber Sleeve and Flex Connector Fabrications
Commonly known as rubber sleeves, boots or tubes, we can quickly supply Straight or Tapered (Conical) Flex Connectors to any material handling manufacturer or distribution plant in the United States.
Do you have a special/custom request for rubber or silicone rubber sleeves?
No problem. Call us with your exact sleeve specifications and we can fulfill your needs. To simplify your ordering request, use our easy Custom Sleeve Order form and fill in the dimension specs you require.
Our long-time customers know that we won't take shortcuts – because we value our reputation on providing high quality rubber parts. Some rubber fabricators rely on a cold-bond adhesive process or fabricating. Those shortcuts create weak, brittle joints, which are prone to tearing.
Our Rubber Sleeve fabrication is second to none. Why?
- We use uncured compounds in our splicing techniques for all types of sleeve manufacturing.
- We hot vulcanize the seams with heat and pressure for durability and reliability.
- Finally, each sleeve is carefully inspected to verify adherence to your required specs and our commitment to a high quality product.
Our technical integrity is our commitment of high quality to you, which means longer-lasting results and consistent standards.
Easy installation and durability, plus extremely competitive pricing, are key benefits for choosing Reichel-Kormann for your new or replacement rubber sleeves or connector socks.
