Zusammenfassung:Ducting with sound absorbing properties has a helical channel 21 which opens internally of the ducting. Overlapping opposite edges of a helically wound strip 20 of polyurethane foam are crimped into the channel. An outer sleeve 3 of thermoplastic rubber is shrunk about the outside of the channel and projects beyond it at opposite ends to form an impermeable outer surface of the ducting and flexible cuffs 22. The outer sleeve 3 is assembled by stretching it radially outwardly by means of a vacuum applied outside the sleeve and then allowing it to shrink about the channel 21 and foam assembly placed within it.
