An elongate, convolutely wound, adhesively secured tube and method for making same from elongate sheet material and being characterized by eliminating the necessity of having a high moisture content in the adhesive for holding the wound tube together following winding, wherein the method includes applying relatively slow acting, low moisture adhesive to a major portion of a first surface of the sheet material, applying relatively fast acting adhesive to a minor portion of the first surface substantially adjacent a first longitudinal edge thereof and a convolutely winding the sheet material transversely of the length thereof into a convolute tube with the first longitudinal edge forming an outside trailing edge and the fast acting adhesive acting to immediately secure the trailing edge to the outer surface of the convolute tube to retain the convolute tube in the wound condition during activation of the slow acting, low moisture adhesive.
