Zusammenfassung:A woven fabric sleeve (16, Figure 1a) for protecting and covering elongated substrates is made up of circumferentially and longitudinally extending interlaced fill and warp members (14a, 14b and 12a, 12b) respectively. The fill members extend through the fabric to form circumferentially extending alternating bands of relative flexibility separating bands of inflexibility. The fill members may be comprised of monofilament or multifilament yarns of alternating large and small diameters and may include wire, especially resilient wire, heat sellable materials, including polyester served wire and DREF yarns havi ng resiliently settable cores. The fill members may be held in relation to one another utilizing Leno and mock Leno weaving. The fabric may be woven directly as a closed tubular sleeve or woven flat and folded into sleeve form.
