Abstract: In an elastic tube as a driving force source of a fluid pressure actuator that is driven by supplying and discharging fluid such as air or liquid, a wear-resistant flocked layer is provided on an entire outer circumferential surface of the elastic tube, and the wear-resistant flocked layer being formed by an electrostatic flocking process in which short fibers made of synthetic resin are flocked to be perpendicular to the outer circumferential surface, and the wear-resistant flocked layer being further formed by the electrostatic flocking process in which the short fibers made of the synthetic fiber are flocked in a number of strips along an axial direction or in a number of dots on the entire outer circumferential surface.
