A SLEEVE FOR PROTECTING WIRE OR CABLE

摘要

A sleeve is provided for protecting wire or cable which is run through an aperture in a stud. The sleeve comprises a slit which runs longitudinally along the length of the sleeve for receiving a wire or cable and an opening at each end to allow for entrance and exit of the wire or cable. Extended portions of the sleeve on each end further protect the enclosed wire or cable. A weakened bend line which runs longitudinally along the length of the sleeve and opposite the slit in the sleeve allows the sleeve to be easily bent by hand compression along the bend line so that the sleeve can be easily installed around the wire or cable without the use of any hand tools.
