A cable sleeve outlet for splice cases comprising a substantially cylindrical member having at least one re-entrant portion and in its longitudinal wall shaped to provide a longitudinal channel, which channel has a longitudinal opening to the exterior of the outlet permitting the re-entrant portion to be wrapped around a cable or similar object aligned with the channel in use, and comprising a fastening means or support means insertable into the open end of the cylindrical member to bridge and thus hold closed the or each said longitudinal opening, the bridging part of the fastening means in use lying across the end cross-sections of the opposing longitudinal wall portions, and the fastening means being so formed that in use it bears on an inner surface of, and thus provides a substantially rigid internal support for, at least part of the longitudinal outside wall of the cylindrical member in addition to the part thereof involved in the said bridging closure. The fastener is preferably in the form of two half-shells with slots which engage the re-entrant portions to hold the openings closed. Sealant material such as hot-melt adhesive is preferably provided on the cable-contacting surfaces of the re-entrant portions and on the fastening means. The cylindrical member may be closed at one end to effect a seal, especially for retaining pressure when used in pressurized splice cases.
