ABSTRACT:
A sealing element is provided for use on insulated flat cables of the type having opposed rounded minor surfaces and opposed substantially flat parallel major surfaces which comprises an elongated body of resilient material having an orifice extending longitudinally within said body. The orifice has a width greater than its height. Opposed involute walls extend within said orifice substantially along the width of the orifice whereby the involute walls stretch and conform to the opposed substantially flat parallel major surfaces of the flat cable when placed thereon, thus providing a secure, watertight interference fit. Depending upon usage, the orifice may extend through the body or terminate within the body. Additionally, it is preferred that sealing rings be formed in the inner wall of the orifice.
