Textile Seals

Since Schlegel's beginning, during the 1880's in Rochester, NY, we have specialized in weaving and finishing narrow strips for everything from cotton to wool to stainless steel to rayon to carbon aramid fiber. We have made everything from hem bindings in the 1890s to carriage trim and from parachute harnesses in the 1940s to seals for the automotive, aircraft and marine industry.

Weaving together strength and flexability with fiber.
