Durosleeve for silistretcher

What’s the secret to stop them from tearing? Every size that come with the stretcher has torn. The support ring that’s wraps around the vacuum bell has even torn. I’ve order a couple more, but I know they will tear too. The stretcher works great, the silicone tubes, not so much.

Any advice?

If you managed to tear the DuroSleev, which is one tough sleeve to even break, the folds that tucks inside the bell is too much. This is just me using my sleeves over 9 months on the same one, I use a layer of TheraBand right at the base of the bell to prevent the sleeve from getting sucked up and folded under the edges of the bell. This is the major cause for the sleeves to crack and tear, even for 8mm thick sleeves. I wouldn't be surprised the sleeve was under 6inHg of vacuum and also got stretched during high movements or traction force. It happened to me as well.

I was cautious about the folds, I did maybe a full turn. I’ll try a few wraps of the theraband this next go around. I’d really like to get this down as it seems the one thing that will work for me. Noose and wrapping don’t work for me when I move around. This actually does.
 
You can also remove the ripped part using a scissors to make a clean cut making the sleeve usable again. Listen to Oldandlively, his suggestions will make a world of difference.
