Abstract
Disclosed herein is a wraparound closure device which includes an axially compressible, radially expansible tubular member which is made from a fabric of engineering plastic. The member is axially split to define a first and a second mating edge. Fastening means are connected to the mating edges for selectively opening and closing the member. The fastening means is fixed in length and thereby when it is connected to the tubular member, the tubular member is also fixed in length. However, the tubular member remains radially variable and expands and contracts to adapt to the shape of a substrate to be enclosed. Also disclosed herein is a method for making such a device.
