  • Publication number: 20230323573
    Abstract: A wrappable woven sleeve includes a wall having opposite edges extending lengthwise between opposite ends. The opposite edges are configured to be wrapped about a central longitudinal axis, whereupon the wall takes on a tubular configuration with an inner surface of the wall bounding an enclosed cavity sized for receipt of an elongate member to be protected therein and an outer surface of the wall facing radially outwardly from the central longitudinal axis. The wall is woven with warp filaments extending generally parallel to the central longitudinal axis and weft filaments extending generally transversely to the warp filaments. One or more of the warp filaments are wire to shield against passage of low frequency EMI. A foil layer is fixed to the outer and/or inner surfaces of the wall to shield against passage of high frequency EMI.
