A vibration-absorbing tube includes a bellows composed of a thin metal and a fiber braid reinforcement covering the bellows. The outer face of the bellows is covered (filled) with a buffer material, or rubber, from the bottom of troughs of the bellows to a height that is 0.5 to 2.0 times the height of ridges of the bellows, and the fiber braid reinforcement has a braided angle of 30 DEG to 50 DEG , preferably, of 35 DEG to 45 DEG . Gaps in the fiber braid reinforcement may be impregnated with a curable resin or rubber. <IMAGE> |
