Fiber optic splice protection device and method for mounting the same

Disclosed is fiber optic splice protection device, comprising: a closure including a cover and a chassis; wherein a circle of groove is formed on mating edge of four walls of one of the cover and the chassis, and an elastic sealing member is placed in the groove; a circle of projection is formed on mating edge of four walls of another of the cover and the chassis; the cover is locked on the chassis in the way of locking, when the cover is locked on the chassis, the projection is pressed against the elastic sealing member and is embedded into the groove in order to achieve the seal locking between the cover and the chassis. The cover of this application may ease to open repeatedly, and the good seal performance between the cover and the chassis can be achieved.
