A system for processing elastomeric load rings may include an elastomeric load ring defining an initial width. The system may also include a fixture assembly configured to receive the load ring between first and second clamp members. The second clamp member may be spaced apart from the first clamp member such that a gap is defined between the clamp members when the load ring defines the initial width. The fixture assembly may also include a load member configured to apply a compressive load through the first clamp member and/or the second clamp member such that the load ring is compressed between the clamp members. When the load ring is heated, a spring force of the load ring may be reduced as the load ring is compressed between the clamp members such that the initial width of the load ring is reduced to a final width.

An animal kennel sizing system for adjusting the interior space of an animal kennel. The animal kennel sizing system includes a partition member and a support brace attached to the partition member. The partition member preferably includes a first aperture and a second aperture for securing to the kennel with a corresponding securing member. The support brace may be severed or adjusted at various locations for providing adjustable lengths to create the desired interior space within the kennel.
