ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for joining an end of a flexible membrane to a rigid backing. A sleeve is used which plants a portion of the membrane and a resilient member in a seat, preformed along an edge of the backing. A punch associated with the sleeve then forms the edge over the resilient member to capture the member and membrane in the seat and at the same time severs any excess portion of membrane along the edge. In one embodiment the membrane is a tube having an end joined to an annular backing about the opening in the backing.
