A tubular support sleeve for tubular storage battery plates comprises a seamless helical tubular lattice structure of fusible flat reinforced thermoplastic tapes, the tapes being fused to one another at their points of intersection. The tapes may be in the form of a laminate consisting of a central strength member having a fusible material on either side thereof. The support sleeve may be used alone or it may be used to contain a braided or felted retaining sleeve. Fusible flat reinforced thermoplastic tapes and staple fiber strands may be braided or woven together to produce a sleeve having combined support and retaining capabilities.
