Abstract

A cover for a connector of a cable is disclosed, which has two interfitting sleeves which are chemically swellable and which are initially in dilated configuration, and which subsequently shrink into place by evaporation of a volatile swelling solvent. Both sleeves are made of a high density elastomeric material, such as a natural or synthetic rubber, preferably (EPDM), neoprene or chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubbers. The device provides a protective cover for a cable connection or splice which can be easily installed, quickly shrunk into tight vapor resistant protective covering within a matter of a few minutes, and can be installed without the need for any application of heat or use of special tools, equipment or materials.
