ABSTRACT:
A cylindrical case for enclosing a cable splice is disclosed which includes a longitudinally split tubular closure member, two end members positionable at either end of the closure member, a gasket of resilient material extending the length of the longitudinal split in the closure member and about the two end member, and a channel member cooperating with upstanding ridges on the closure member at the longitudinal split to secure closure of the case. The gasket includes an elongate, resilient sealing element with an elongate rigid bar extending longitudinally therethrough. The bar includes formed ends which define a slot to receive a fastening element and a ground contact extending from the end of the gasket. Resilient sealing rods also extend laterally from the gasket to define sealing elements about the two end members of the splice case. The gasket is tapered as are the channel members and mechanism is provided on the closure member and on the channel members to enable a forcing of the closure members into interference fit on the case.
