 Beading
is a versatile end-finishing technique that can be applied to a
variety of industrial applications in conjunction with an O-ring,
for example, beaded joints can be used to interconnect exhaust tubes
or low-pressure fuel lines.
Beads can also be used to dampen vibration in solid lines, or to
increase the effectiveness of the seal when a rubber or fabric
sleeve is clamped to a metal duct.
Typical applications: Low pressure air, exhaust, and liquid
systems in the automotive, appliance and boating fields. Beading is
