ABSTRACT:
A tubular article of resilient material used as a protective sheathing for wires, hoses or other elongated substrates is provided with substantially circumferentially extending corrugations and a longitudinally slit side wall to allow for installation over the substrates. Fastening means in the form of hook-and-loop fastening tape is applied to the abutting edges of the slit so that the hooks and loops interlock when the slit is closed. The hook-and-loop tape protects the fingers of the worker during installation of the tubular article, prevents relative movement of the slit edges caused by turning and twisting forces, thereby eliminating undesirable noise during use and the need for taping following installation.
