Gum rubber boots and sleeves
10 3/4" ID Gum Rubber Boot, Cut to Length
The 10 3/4 inch gum rubber boot is sized to slip over 10 inch nominal pipe, which measures 10.75 inches across the outside. If you measured the pipe and got 10 3/4, this is your size. If you measured the inside of an old boot and got 10 3/4, this is still your size.
Taped dovetail puzzle seam, hot vulcanized twice. Drag the boot to turn it.

On a batch plant this is a weigh batcher discharge and a cement fill line size. On a cement terminal it is a common loading spout connection. In dust collection it is the flex between a fan inlet and the ductwork, where the sleeve is doing vibration isolation as much as sealing.
A 1/4 inch wall covers most of it. Where cement or fly ash is running through, 1/4 inch still works because the material is fine and does not gouge. Where aggregate is falling through, go to 3/8 inch. Abrasion, not flex fatigue, is what kills a boot on the aggregate side of a plant.
Length is the number people get wrong. Measure the gap the boot spans and add 3 to 4 inches of overlap on each end so the clamp has rubber to bite. A boot cut exactly to the gap has nothing to clamp to.

Old part numbers
Working from an old part number instead of a measurement? Put the number in the notes field on the RFQ and we will match the dimensions. If the old boot is gone, the inside diameter, wall and length are all we need.
Have your measurements?
ID, wall, length. That is all we need to quote it.
