Zusammenfassung:An apparatus (1) for sealing the end of an elongate cable (55) such as an electrical heating cable which comprises a clip-shaped insert (23) positioned within a tubular-shaped housing (3). Gripping members (41 43) and pre-gripping members (45, 47) project from the interior surfaces (31 37) of the arms of the insert and act to grip a cable (55) when it is inserted into the device. A locking mechanism (49) on the insert (23) engages locking teeth (2.1) on the housing and serve s to hold the insert in position. A conformable gel component may be present. The apparatus provides high pullout force, as well as environmental sealing, for cables such as electrical heating cables or power cables.
