ABSTRACT:
The cable lock comprises a flexible cable portion and an elongate lock body to which the cable portion is secured, oriented in the longitudinal direction of the lock body, by a first end and can be attached, oriented transversely to the longitudinal direction of the lock body, by a second end. A plastics housing, furnished with through openings for the ends of the cable portion, encases the lock body. The housing consists of two housing parts, pushed into each other in the longitudinal direction of the lock body and engaged with each other when pushed in, which housing parts are fixed by abutment surfaces against opposed abutment surfaces of the lock body. The one housing part forms a pocket, disposed laterally of the lock body, into which pocket a projection of the other housing part can be pushed. The pocket increases the peripheral wall length of the housing, which facilitates handling of the lock on account of larger gripping surfaces and improves the engagement action of the detent connection between the two housing parts, provided in the region of the pocket.
