A protective member for a wire harness and electrical member fixed thereto, a wire harness assembly, and a method of constructing a protective member for a wire harness and electrical member fixed thereto are provided. The protective member includes a tubular woven wall extending between opposite open ends about a central axis and a tubular braided wall fixed to the tubular woven wall. One end of the tubular woven wall is configured to overlie the electrical member to provide protection thereto, and the tubular braided wall extends away from the other of the opposite open ends of the tubular woven wall about the central axis for operable attachment a wire harness.

Impact and cut-through resistant, self-locating, multilayered textile sleeve and method of construction thereof

A protective sleeve assembly for protecting an electrical member and a wire harness extending therethrough and method of construction thereof are provided. The sleeve assembly includes a multi-layer tube extending longitudinally along an axis between opposite ends. An end cap is disposed over one of the opposite ends. The end cap has an opening through which the wire harness extends to allow assembly and disassembly of the protective sleeve assembly along the wire harness and about the electrical member. The multilayer tube includes an inner tube and an outer tube. The inner tube has a semi-rigid tubular wall including radially extending energy dissipating features to minimize the transmission of impact forces to the electrical member. The outer tube is a textile tube disposed about the inner tube.

Protective, locatable sleeve and method of construction thereof

A thermally insulative, flexible, durable reflective exhaust pipe sleeve and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve includes a knit, heat-resistant inner layer, a reflective metallic outer layer and an intermediate layer sandwiched between the inner and outer layers. The inner layer is constructed having an inner surface exposed to an inner cavity of the sleeve and the outer layer is constructed having an outer reflective surface exposed to the surrounding environment. The intermediate layer is constructed of a woven material and is sandwiched in abutment with the inner and outer layers. The outer and intermediate layers are convoluted, while the inner layer is cylindrically tubular.
