Manorville, NY – SAS Industries has announced its acquisition of Specialty Rubber Corp, significantly expanding its footprint in the gasket manufacturing industry.

SAS Industries, a gasket and seal manufacturer for over 45 years, has factories in the states of New York and North Carolina. The company specializes in a range of machinery processes, including die cutting, waterjet cutting, flash cutting, compression molding, liquid injection molding, extruding and vulcanizing, providing these to a range of clients in the aviation, aerospace, telecommunications, defense, and other industries.
