A T-shaped hose includes a vulcanized main hose having a wall with an opening therein and a vulcanized branch hose having one end disposed adjacent to the opening in the main hose, so that the hoses are approximately in the form of a “T”. A hollow generally cylindrical branch sleeve having a generally outwardly directed flange at its lower end and an annular recess formed in the outer wall of the sleeve adjacent to the flange, is disposed primarily within the branch hose with the flange engaging the inner wall of the main hose and defining therebetween an annular channel. A fixation member composed of a vulcanizable rubber is received with the recess and channel.

In a T-shaped hose formed of rubber or rubber-like material having an embedded reinforcing inlay of high stressability fabric or fiber structure, wherein a vulcanized branch hose is secured at one end at the opening in the wall of a vulcanized main hose, the zone of connection being lined on the inside of the branch hose with a sleeve formed of polyamide or other viscous plastic, which abuts the cylindrical inner wall of the main hose with a flange-like edge, and said zone of connection being covered on the outside with a still-vulcanizable rubber mixture, the improvement comprising: an axially wide, annular recess formed in the outer surface of said sleeve adjacent the flange; an annular channel formed between the inner wall of the main hose at the connection zone and said flange by said flange being axially deformed backwards at its outer edge, said annular channel being interconnected with said recess; and a still-vulcanizable rubber mixture injected into and filling said annular recess and said annular channel so that upon vulcanization a solid and rigid bond is formed between the sleeve and the branch and main hoses at the zone of connection.
