Free-breathing Aerial Closures
With 3M
™
SLiC
™
Closures and Terminals, ambient outdoor air circulates
freely through each splice, discouraging corrosion by allowing
condensation to safely drain away, while protecting your connections
from UV sunlight, animals and weather.
3M SLiC closures’ double-wall molded, single-piece closures are easily
installed during construction or maintenance. Its one-piece construction
makes splices easy to access after placement without removing the
closure or bonding from the cables. All components attach to the
closure, so there are no parts to lose.

End Seals for the

Closures and Terminals
The 3M

SLiC
™
Aerial Closures and Terminals are easy to use and
offer two types of end seals, each of which ensures a snug cable fit
and virtually eliminates the need for drip collars.
• 3M SLiC Rubber End Seal (RES)
– Use these seals in new
construction by measuring the cable and cutting the appropriate
ring. For existing cables, simply slit the end seal from outside and
tear out the center section. An additional drop can be added by
puncturing the smaller circles in the front side of the end seal.
RES are offered in one-, two- and three-port configurations and
can accommodate cables ranging from 0.5 to 3.8 inches.

on diameter.
