LIKE ALL OLD DIVE EQUIPMENT, IT SHOULD NOT BE DIVED WITHOUT BEING CERTIFIED

During World War II, The Ohio Rubber Company was contracted by the United States Government to manufacture a range of products, including diving masks, life belts, aircraft drop tanks, fuel cells, and tank tracks. Production efforts by the company were recognized with an Army-Navy “E” Award. During the war, more than 200 employees enlisted in the armed services. Following the war, the company successfully transitioned to the production of civilian products, including tires for farm equipment and toy tricycles, and rubber grips for bicycle handlebars.
