An extruded tubular molding is clamped at upper and lower portions thereof to form an air-tight space therebetween and thereafter compressed within two corresponding halves of a molding die and molded into the configuration of a final product. The lower portion of the molding is first clamped and lowered to stretch the molding downwardly prior to clamping the upper portion and compressing the molding in the molding die.

[ What the invention claimed is:] [4.] A process of extrusion molding comprising the steps of:a) extruding a material through an extruding die to form a hollow tubular molding;b) driving a first clamping device from a first original position to clamp a first portion of the molding;c) moving the first clamping device to stretch the molding;d) driving a second clamping device from a second original position to clamp a second portion of the molding and form an air-tight space in the molding between the first and second clamped portions thereof;e) closing two corresponding halves of a molding die defining a die cavity around the air-tight space of the molding between the clamping devices and compressing the molding, said molding die including a pin with a through hole, the air-tight space being of sufficient volume so that the internal air pressure within the molding is increased and said increase in internal air pressure causes said hollow tubular molding to conform to a final product configuration defined by the die cavity during compressing of the molding, said hollow tubular molding also conforming to said pin and entering said through hole in said pin to form a thinned wall portion; and thereafterf) opening the two die cavity halves of the molding die and returning the clamping devices to their respective first and second original positions and removing a final product from said molding die, said thinned wall portion breaking upon removal of said final product from the molding die to allow the escape of internal air.
