ABSTRACT:
A closure for receipt and storage of a plurality of splice connections and encapsulant. The closure includes first and second cooperating shells defining a bounded region and being telescopically engageable with one another. The closure further includes a living hinge for connecting the first and second shells. The hinge extends continuously across at least one side of each of the closures and is located to allow one of such shells to telescope within the other of the shells when the shells are rotated from an open position to a closed position thus providing a encapsulant-displacing force which continuously directs encapsulant within the bounded region away from the living hinge and toward the splice connections contained therein.
