I am trying to find out some information about the green braiding with a single white strip found on the electrical harnesses. Does anyone know who manufactures this product or where it can be purchased?

The harness is not manufactured or sold. It is made by a braiding machine. The wires are fed through the machine and threads are braided around them. The single white line or the criss-cross(flight control) pattern, or no line can be chosen. The machines are generally located in the Fab Shop.

Heh, maybe it's a Chinese dude combing over a Pakistani F-16. Devil

The aircraft is a F-16. Thanks sqtskull and bharrist for your input. I was able to locate two companies that have the capability to braid my harness for me. I did find a sleeve that can be purchased but did not have the needed white thread tracer.
