A protective splice case for communication cables includes two half tubular members and two cylindrical end seals. A composite material, in the form of a non-tacky, resilient and yieldable sealant non-releasably secured to an adhesive, is positioned between the two half members, with the adhesive contacting one of the two half members and the non-tacky sealant facing the other of the two half members. Also, the composite is positioned between the end seals and the half members, with the adhesive contacting the outer surfaces of the end seals and the non-tacky sealant facing the interior surfaces of the two half members. The result is a splice case which keeps the extraneous material such as water, dust, dirt and snow from reaching the interior of the splice case, and is yet reusable and reenterable for repairs and inspection.
