A rigid end socket is formed on a length of flexible rubber tubing for receiving a tube coupler or a radially expandable end plug in a tightly retained manner. The end socket is formed by placing a sleeve of uncured rubber on a forming mandrel and then placing a rigid collar over an end of the sleeve spaced somewhat from the end. The outer length portion of the sleeve is folded over the collar to enclose the collar between an inner length portion and the outer length portion. Then the resulting product is cured to produce a flexible tube with a rigid socket at one end.
