To provide a tubular cushioning material made of a synthetic resin foam which is easily covered even on a curved object, such as a corner portion of a fence of a hospital bed, and which is hardly damaged in aesthetic appearance.SOLUTION: A tubular cushioning material having a tubular body 10 made of a synthetic resin foam and having an annular perforation 2 composed of a plurality of slits 1 extending in the circumferential direction of the tubular body 10 is provided in an axial center of the tubular body 10 A plurality of consecutive tubular cushioning materials 8 are provided along the direction. In this case, adjacent slits 1 in the axial direction of the cylindrical body 10 may be disposed with a phase difference in the circumferential direction.(FIG.【課題】病院ベッドの柵のコーナー部のように、湾曲した対象物に対しても被せ易く、美観が損なわれ難い合成樹脂発泡体からなる筒状緩衝材を提供する。【解決手段】合成樹脂発泡体からなる筒体10を有する筒状緩衝材であって、筒体10の周方向に延びた複数のスリット1からなる環状ミシン目2が、筒体10の軸心方向に沿って複数連設された筒状緩衝材8とした。その際、筒体10の軸心方向において隣接するスリット1どうしは、互いに周方向での位相差を持って配置されていてもよい。【選択図】図5
