Zusammenfassung:A handle for an electronic instrument housing includes an elongated grip portion. The grip portion includes two elongated elements each having opposed ends. The elements are connected to each other to form an elongated chamber. An elastomeric layer encompasses an intermediate portion of the grip portion, and the grip portion has a vent aperture communicating with the chamber. The vent aperture may be beyond the elastomeric layer, at one or both ends. One of the elongated elements may form a channel with tapered edge surfaces receiving the other element, so that pressure of elastomeric molding tends to wedge the parts together to form a seal against incursion of the elastomer.
