Abstract
This invention provides a braided tubular sleeve having increased abrasion resistance. The braided tubular sleeve according to this invention have a resilient self-conforming 'springback' property which enables the sleeve to conform in close contact with the surface of substrates, such as wire or cable bundles. The increased abrasion resistance is provided by braiding in with the resilient plastic yarns about one to about twenty ends of a resilient monofilament yarn such as nylon for every two ends of a resilient engineering plastic monofilament yarn such as polyester.
