ABSTRACT:
A cable locking and sealing device has an elongate body of elastomeric material formed with at least one through-passage for receiving a cable and at least one longitudinal slit extending down at least a portion of its length. The interior of the through passage is formed with a series of annular ribs which each taper in depth towards a point adjacent the longitudinal slit. When the device is pulled into an entry port, its elongate body becomes radially compressed thereby holding the cable firmly in place: however, the sealing effect of the ribs against the cable is not compromised by any relative longitudinal displacement of the portions of the body either side of the slit.
