ABSTRACT:
A wrap-around device for enclosing an elongate object comprises a cover having two opposed edge portions and that can be interlocked to retain them together. At least one of the edge portions, and preferably both the edge portions, are provided with a protuberance, which extend along the edge portions and engage the opposed edge portion that may be caused if the edge portions are subjected to a tensile force tending to separate them, for example as may be caused if the device and enclosed object is bent.
Preferably at least one of the edge portions is provided with a layer of adhesive to prevent moisture ingress between the edge portions.
