<p>A strip of very thin flexible material has continuous longitudinal corrugations in the form of curved ridges and hollows, and may be curled helically to form a flexible tube. The strip has a first marginal ridge with a radius of curvature smaller than that of all other ridges, and a second marginal ridge with a radius of curvature larger than that of all other ridges. As the strip is curled with the first marginal ridge overlying a first intermediate ridge and the second marginal ridge underlying a second intermediate ridge, the marginal ridges are respectively spread over and closed under the intermediate ridges to conform to the curvature thereof.</p> |
