A wrappable, corrugated woven sleeve and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve includes a wall having opposite edges wrapped about a central axis into overlapping relation with one another. The wall has a plurality of layers overlying one another. Each layer includes warp yarns extending generally parallel to the central axis woven with fill yarns extending generally transversely to the warp yarns. Each layer includes a plurality of annular first bands and a plurality of annular second bands alternating with one another along the length of the wall. The first bands of each layer include monofilament weft yarn and multifilament weft yarn and the second bands of each layer include only one of monofilament weft yarn or multifilament weft yarn. The first bands overlie one another to form peaks and the second bands B overlie one another to form valleys, such that the wall has a corrugated contour.

Impact resistant, wrappable, corrugated, multilayered woven sleeve and method of construction thereof

A wrappable, woven sleeve includes a wall having opposite edges extending lengthwise between opposite ends, with the opposite edges being wrappable into overlapping relation to bound a central cavity. The wall has a plurality of layers extending from one edge to the opposite edge and from one end to the opposite end in overlying relation with one another. Each of the layers include warp yarns and fill yarns woven together. The wrapped wall has a radially outermost layer and a radially innermost layer. The radially outermost layer has at least one of a first tightness and/or first width and the radially innermost layer has at least one of a second tightness and/or second width, with the first tightness and first width being greater than the second tightness and second width.
