ABSTRACT:
A flat flexible cable assembly includes a flat flexible cable having one or more substantially rectangular conductors encompassed within an insulating sheath. An overmold encapsulates and is secured to a portion of the flat flexible cable in an area in which the insulating sheath has been stripped. One or more sealing members are integrally-formed with the overmold and encapsulates and is secured to each stripped conductor to form a seal. The overmold and the sealing member(s) may be made of the same material by using a one-step process. Alternatively, the overmold and sealing member(s) may be made of different material by using a two-shot process. A method of manufacturing the flat flexible cable assembly is disclosed.
