ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed herein an apparatus for sealing to and protecting a cable jacket from damage when a sharp instrument is used to forcibly remove a sealed heat recoverable closure from the cable and a method for making same. The apparatus comprises a thin stainless steel sheet coated over part of its width on both sides with a thermoplastic adhesive. The adhesive coated sheet is wrapped around the part of the cable jacket to be protected and sealed and is secured by fiberglass reinforced tape. Heating of the closure causes the adhesive to flow thereby securing the shield in place.
