Low profile, wrappable elongate members spacer and method of maintaining elongate members in fixed, spaced relative relation

摘要

A low profile, wrappable spacer and method for maintaining a pair of elongate members in fixed, spaced relation to one another is provided. The wrappable spacer includes a flexible elongate body having oppositely facing inner and outer faces extending along laterally spaced, lengthwise extending edges between opposite ends. The inner face has an adhesive surface. At least one member extends between the edges transversely to the lengthwise extending edges. The member extends outwardly from the adhesive surface, wherein the adhesive surface is configured for adhesion to at least one of the member, the elongate members or the outer face.

1. A low profile, wrappable spacer for maintaining a plurality of elongate members in fixed, spaced relation to one another, comprising:
a flexible elongate body having oppositely facing inner and outer faces extending along laterally spaced, lengthwise extending edges between opposite ends, said inner face having an adhesive surface; at least one member extending between said edges transversely to the lengthwise extending edges and having a height extending outwardly from said adhesive surface for receipt between the elongate members lying in abutment with said inner face of said flexible elongate body, such that said elongate members are spaced from one another by said at least one member, wherein an outer circumference dimension is defined about said spaced apart elongate members, said flexible body having a length so dimensioned to be wrapped about said outer circumference dimension with one of said ends of said flexible body being configured to be wrapped in outward, overlapping relation with the other of said ends to maintain the flexible body in fixed relation about the elongate members and to maintain the elongate members in spaced relation from one another inside the wrapped flexible body; said at least one member is compliant to substantially conform with said spaced apart elongate members; said adhesive surface including a pressure sensitive adhesive that extends laterally from said at least one member; and further including a release paper covering said pressure sensitive adhesive, said release paper being selectively removal from said pressure sensitive adhesive to expose said pressure sensitive adhesive for adhesion with said spaced apart elongate members.
